                    Among The Leaves 






DADGAD 

A = 777600 or 002202
Em = 220000
D = 000200
G = 555400
F# = 400000

   A             Em             D            A
A pillow lays on cold cement, a blanket by a broken vent
      Em                 D          A
She’s there a while, and then she’s gone
    Em              D         A
I’m away for weeks, arrive at night
    Em                    D                  A
She hears my steps, turns off the light and runs



                Em                                          
No mind at all, more space than I need
    D        A                Em                D          A
It’s just me among the weeds, among the ghosts, among the leaves
                    Em                 
We’ve never met but she’s a girl
 D       A
Romance paper books
              Em        D           A
The floor is covered in long blonde curls



G               F#
On afternoons I walk the graves
    D                A
The rusted cars, the mine shaft caves
      Em           D                 A
See a girl sadly unkempt, a child of neglect
G             F#
Under moons I pass the tombs
D                   A
Cross the highways, smell the fumes
      Em                 D                      A
See a girl frighteningly gaunt, somebody didn’t want
         Em       D       A        Em  D           A     
How do I tell her I don’t care, if she sleeps downstairs?



   A            Em
I see her on my errand runs
        D        A     Em    D   A
Looking nervous like a young Mia Farrow
                   Em       
Walking ‘long the gas stops
 D               A          Em    D        A
Window browsing pawn shops, guns, bows and arrows



               Em          
Up on past the Halfway house
 D             A             Em        D    A
Past the signs Eighty South, Buttercup and Carrows
               Em     
Drinking Wild Irish Rose
       D         A              Em           D        A
At the dead end down the road, sleeping with the sparrows



     G               F#
When evening comes I play guitar
D               A
For the planets and the stars
            Em                    D            A                               
I leave the porch light on like I do when I’m gone
 G               F#
Winter, spring, summer, fall
D                  A
Basement’s yours, have a ball
               Em    D      A       Em         D       A     
There’s always room for you there… really baby I don’t care
