Intro A G F# F A x 4 – A A4 A G C D A x 2

A Dead leaves and the G dirty ground
when I C know you’re D not a-A round G
A shiny tops and G soda pops
when I C hear your lips D make a A sound
when I F hear your lips G make a A sound G

A Thirty notes in the G mailbox
will C tell you that I’m D coming A home G
A and I think I’m gonna G stick around
for a C while so you’re D not a-A lone
for a F while so you’re G not a-A lone

Inter A G C D A G x 2

A If you can hear a G piano fall
you can F# hear me coming F down the A hall G
A if I could just hear your G pretty voice
I don’t C think I need to D see at A all
I don’t F think I need to G see at A all

A Soft hair and a G velvet tongue
I want to C give you what you D give to A me G
A and every breath that is G in your lungs
is a C tiny little D gift to A me
is a F tiny little G gift to A me

D I didn’t feel so bad till the A sun went down G A
D then I come home no one to wrap my arms a-F round
no one to wrap my arms a-G round

A Well any man with a G microphone

if you’re C thinking of the D holy A ghost
if you’re F thinking of the G holy A ghost
