Canyons And Caverns

Shawn Mullins

 EB
 it was taken in the desert early light
E /ESUS4
i look a lot like a leprechaun
E /ESUS4
with a mexican vest and a red hippie hat on
 BDB
maracas in my left hand, stick in my right           
E F# D E /ESUS4
there are canyons there are caverns
 EF#DB
there are boarder roadside taverns       
C#m B ASUS2 E E /ESUS4 B
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
E /ESUS4
she naps with the tv on
E /ESUS4
i smell the june cut grass from my pappy's lawn
E /ESUS4 B
i play alone in the little room upstairs
E /ESUS4
there are lincoln logs and cookie tins
E /ESUS4
colored blocks and wars to win
E /ESUS4 B D B
i draw and i dream and beat my drums up there
E F# D E /ESUS4
there are circus lights and maple leaves
 EF#DB
 there are daffodils and dogwood trees
C#m B ASUS2 E
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me

Between here play the following chords (fingerplay):

 EADGBEEADGBEEADGBE
 4xx400          5xx400          7xx800   2X   and play B at last

E /ESUS4
now the coffee's strong
E /ESUS4
and the fruit's all wrong
E /ESUS4 B
and my wakeup call's for somebody else
E /ESUS4
and the tv's hoax and neurosis jokes
 B
always keep my laughing at myself
 DB
and i laugh a lot that's what i do
 DB
and i learn the things i never knew
E F# D E /ESUS4
and i see canyons i see caverns
 EF#DB
i see border roadside taverns      
C#m B ASUS2 E
and i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
E B ASUS2 E
i am held captive only by the big blue sky
E B ASUS2 E ASUS2 B E and fade out
i am held captive by the big blue sky above me
