Eels - In The Yard Behind The Church Ukulele

C G A# F G# Gm C

C                 G
  In the yard, behind the church where
A#                F
 Butterflies and blackbirds search for
G#                Gm               C
 A safe place to rest the night away
C               G
We will go down to the brook and
A#            F
Sit upon the overlook then
G#                 Gm              C 
 Forget about the troubles of the day

C G A# F G# Gm C

C               G
  We will walk among the graves of
A#                   F
 Men long dead with presidents' names and
G#               Gm                C
  Listen to the water flow softly by

C                 G
  I will kiss you on the lips now
A#                      F
 And as the sky grows dark we'll strip down
G#                  Gm            C
 And let the water wash away all lies

C               G
 In the yard, behind the church where
A#                F
 Butterflies and blackbirds perch on
G#                   Gm               C
 Gray stones as the garden's growing dim

C                 G
 We will lay down on the ground and
A#               F
 Put our cheeks against the dirt down
G#                   Gm                   C
 Where it no longer matters Where you've been

C G A# F G# Gm C x6 (Fade out)
