looking out across suburban yards to the construct of our
D/F#
days through the thinning of the trees .
Em D/F# Csus
how come i only build a house of cards?
G D/F#
that gets blown to pieces by the fall’s first fickle breeze .
Am7 Bm7 C D
when i feel that stirring , the illicit kiss .
Am7 Bm7 C
that’s just the cool tongue of the devil with a sucker in
D
his midst .
[ chorus : ]
G D/F# Em Am7 C D
one day i’ll change you’ll be the first one that i call .
G D/F# Em Am7 C D
i owe you an apology too many thanks and that’s not all .
Csus D G
’cause i’ve been running long before i learned to crawl .
Em D/F# Csus
my calendar lies crumbled laid to waste .
G D/F#
it’s been scrawled on , thumbed through and changed .
Em D/F# Csus
will this be the measure of my days?
G D/F#
dinners and appointments and deadlines i can’t make .
Am7 Bm7 C D
and when i start to see it making sense for me .
Am7 Bm7 C D
that’s just hope springing eternally .
[ chorus ]
C G
outside the summer’s gone for good .
F C
dying impatiens stacked up wood .
G
my friends will get together to cook .
D C D
to talk about what’s happened to take a second look .
Em D/F# Csus
the master loves the servant who blind heeds him .
G D/F#
the husband the obedient wife .
Em D/F# Csus
the snake will always bite the hand that feeds him .
G D/F#
even if you love him even if you save his life .
