[Intro]

C,Em,F,C,G


[Verse 1]

       C   
In our days we will live
         Em
Like our ghosts will live
         F                      C
Pitching glass at the cornfield crows
            G
And folding clothes


[Verse 2]

              C
Like stubborn boys across the road
           Em
We'll keep everything
          F                      C
Grandma's gun and the black bear claw
              G
That took her dog


[Verse 3]

            C
When sister Laurie says, "Amen" 
              Em
We won't hear anything
            F                     C
The ten-car trains will take that word
               G
That fledgling bird


[Verse 4]

               C
And the fallen house across the way
           Em
It'll keep everything
           F                   C
The baby's breath. Our bravery wasted 
        G
and our shame


[Chorus]

          F                               C
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
         F                              G
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
        F                         C
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
         F                             G
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Instrumental Break: C,Em,F,C,G


[Verse 5]

       C
In our days we will say
         Em
What our ghosts will say
            F                 C
We gave the world what it saw fit
              G
And what'd we get?


[Verse 6]

              C
Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
          Em
We'll see everything
              F                   C
In the tender shade of the autumn leaves
                  G
And the buzzard's wing


[Chorus]

           F                               C
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
         F                              G
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
        F                         C
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
         F                             G
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Enjoy!!
