If moths could light matches,

this world would be ashes.

and they'd cling to the white hem of your dress.
         Bm
Well, we dance in the dust storm,

and I'd spin you around.
        Em
And we'd count all our blessings,
      G
throw our burdens down.
     D                 G       Em       G
Just content to be lonesome as a whistling train,

oh, I wish it were different but it's always the same.
