Green Grass by Tom Waits
Green Grass
Intro:
Cm Cm
Verse:
Fm
Lay your head where my heart used to be
G Cm
Hold the earth above me
Ab
Lay down in the green grass
G Cm
Remember when you loved me
Fm
Come closer don't be shy
G Cm
Stand beneath a rainy sky
Ab
The moon is over the rise
G Cm
Think of me as a train goes by
Fm
Clear the thistles and brambles
G Cm
Whistle 'Didn't He Ramble'
Ab
Now there's a bubble of me
G Cm
And it's floating in thee
Middle Section:
Fm Bb
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
G Cm
Can't tell the birds from the blossoms
Ab
You'll never be free of me
G Cm
He'll make a tree from me
Fm
Don't say good bye to me
G Cm
Describe the sky to me
Ab G
And if the sky falls, mark my words
Cm
We'll catch mocking birds
Interlude (With Whistling):

Fm
Lay your head where my heart used to be
