Chasing Rhyme and fearing the Verse
CAPO 5 No CAPO in G
Am F C G
C
Salty, eyes in the green waves
F
Wet dock, feet on the old wood
C G
Shoreline, etched out with rouged caves
G C Am F C G
She, by cool water stood
C
Warm Sun, vivid red cheeks
F
White sail, rolling seascape
C G
Blue sky, edged with tall white peaks
G C Am F C G
Time hangs (out on the cape)
Am
If I pen a warm dawn
F
With dew on a green lawn
C G
Will it dry by afternoon
C
Or will the verse forever loom
Am
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
F
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
G C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
Am F C G
C
Grimy, alleya€™s dark & damp
F
Cold child, has no walking shoes
C G
Cardboard, home for young street tramps
G C Am F C G
Thirteen, and on the booze
C
Dirty, torn and worn out clothes
F
Begging, on the sidewalk
C G
Bruises, from lifea€™s harsh blows
G C Am F C G
Time hangs (out on the block)
Am
If I sing a sad song
F
About a cat with tail long
C G
Will she die on life nine
C
Or will the tune forever rhyme
Am
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
F
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
G C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
G C
Where does art live
G Am
Where do songs sleep
F G C Am
How much can a poem give
G C
before its lost to the heap
Am F C G verse break
Am
If I ink a new day
F
About bright snow and kids play
C G
Will the words all melt away
C
Or will the yarn forever sleigh
Am
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
F
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
G C
DA DA (DA DA DA DA DA)
