Linger Let Me Linger Chords

(ver. 1)
The Handsome Family
C

           C                             D7 
Like the thorn bush twines against the chain link fence
          Dm                                  Fm G
Like the spider spins its rings between the trees
         Dm              G#m  G        C
And the lonely sycamore bends to the breeze

C                          D7 
I am the puddles in the street 
 Dm                        Fm  G
waiting for your falling leaves
  C                                     D7 
Twine your vines around me, drop your branches in my path
 Dm                   Fm G
Linger, let me linger

Fm G Fm G Fm G C

  F                Fm           C
Hearts drawn on a dusty window pane, 
   Dm                     G
a love note lying in the road
   F             Fm                C
A car circling round a darkened street, 
   Dm                   G
a woman crying on the phone

C                                  D7 
We are like the crickets in the spring, 
 Dm                     Fm  G
calling out from under stones
  C                                     D7 
Twine your vines around me, drop your branches in my path
 Dm                   Fm G
Linger, let me linger

  C                  D7       Dm         Fm G
