(capo on 2)
Intro (and basic pattern): A- A E D/ x2
LA- LA MI RE
(V): A rifle sits behind her sleeping ear
LA- LA MI RE
Echo on the cold wall, closest neighbour couldn't hear
LA- LA MI RE
We dug a hole in the fall
LA- LA MI RE
So now its a frozen burial
MI - RE - LA- LA MI RE
And she's gone, just before the new year
Well I'm gonna build a cross for her spot between the trees
And stick it in firm so it won't sway in the breeze
You and I have trouble making up our half-assed minds
But she'd seen sixteen years of our kind
What's it like, when your memories start to freeze
MI FAe RE LA
(C): Oh, and I wonder
MI FAe RE LA
What it is about dogs and thunder
MI FAe RE LA MI FAe RE LA
What they hear, coming over the field
MI FAe RE LA
Back hall shelter, warm nights in summer
MI FAe RE LA
Shaking the ground that you lie under
MI FAe
Well I know you're not here
RE LA MI FAe RE LA
But at least you don't feel it anymore
(A- LA MI RE) x2
MI
(B): And I came to see you, on the day that it happened
RE LA MI
You said "Hey sorry Sar, but I gotta go"
And I was trying to read, some sort of reaction
LA RE MI
Something you just can't show
RE
So I guess it's time I go
(V): Across the snowy barnyard, just past the driving shed
Shadow of me in the moon, well I was in the movie in my head
This pile of dirt on the ground
Will sink when nobody's around
Winter covers everything, but everything's not dead
(C): Oh, and I wonder...
Well I know you're not here
But at least you don't feel it anymore
Well I know you're not here
But at least you don't fear it anymore
Slightly strange chords:
