Green Grass

Tom Waits

 CmCm

Verse:

 Fm
Lay your head where my heart used to be

 GCm
 Hold the earth above me

 Ab
 Lay down in the green grass

 GCm
 Remember when you loved me

 Fm
Come closer don't be shy

 GCm
 Stand beneath a rainy sky

 Ab
 The moon is over the rise

 GCm
 Think of me as a train goes by

 Fm
Clear the thistles and brambles

 GCm
 Whistle 'Didn't He Ramble'

 Ab
 Now there's a bubble of me

 GCm
 And it's floating in thee

Middle Section:

 FmBb
 Stand in the shade of me

 Eb
 Things are now made of me

 Ab
 The weather vane will say...

 G
 It smells like rain today

Verse

 Fm
God took the stars and he tossed 'em

 GCm
 Can't tell the birds from the blossoms

 Ab
 You'll never be free of me

 GCm
 He'll make a tree from me

 Fm
Don't say good bye to me

 GCm
 Describe the sky to me

 AbG
 And if the sky falls, mark my words

 Cm
 We'll catch mocking birds

Interlude (With Whistling):
 GCm

Last Verse:

 Fm
Lay your head where my heart used to be

 GCm
 Hold the earth above me

 Ab
 Lay down in the green grass

 GCmCm
 Remember when you loved me
