i’ve had a quick look around , and couldn’t find a tab to ricky lee jones’ ( also
beautiful ) original version of this , but this is what i tabbed out a little while ago . i’m not
one hundred percent certain , but i think the chords are the same throughout .
this is a simplified version of the piano part at the start . and/or the melody line . you
might want to slide the notes a little , though .

now they’re on their way
G
dashing through the snow
D
to st . john’s , here we go
well , it could be a boy
but it’s okay if he’s girl
oh , these things that grow out of
the things that we give
we should move to the west side
they still believe in things
that give a kid half a chance
when he pulled off the road
step in a waltz of red moon – beams
said he fit an apbd
robbery nearby
and he go for his wallet
and they thought he was going for a gun
and the cops blew bird away
some kids like watching saturday cartoons
some girls like to listen to records all day in their rooms
but what do birds leave behind of the wings that they came with
if your son’s in a tree building model planes?
skeletons ,
skeletons .
