Intro
A E x2

Verse
A                                    E (riff 1)
In the failing light of the afternoon
A                                      E (riff 1)
Lucy in the shade of the dogwood blooms
A                                    E (riff 1)
Yesterday the solace of a poison fish
A                                             B
Tomorrow I'll be kissing on her blood red lips

A                                         E (riff 1)
No one is the savior they would like to be
A                                              E (riff 1)
The lovesong of the buzzard in the dogwood tree
A                                                       E (riff 1)
With a train of horses laughing through the traffic line
A                                           B
And the cradle's unimaginative sense of time

A (riff 2) E x3
A (riff 2) B (riff 2)

A                                         E (riff 1)
Springtime and the promise of an open fist
A                                     E (riff 1)
A tattoo of a flower on a broken wrist
A                                      E (riff 1)
Lucy tells me jokingly to wipe her brow
A                                                B
With a pocket map to heaven and the sun goes down

Outro
A (riff 4) E x4
