Second Song

A                Bm
  The second song came softly
G                                  D  E
  He heard it seeping through the vent
A                         Bm
  The notes were long and languished
G                           D      E
  They described their circumstance

A            Bm
The rent was halfway spent
G                     D  E
  The day was peeling hot
A                  Bm
She asked, "Can we leave this place?"
   G                   D  E
He answered, "Probably not."


[Chorus]
         F#m            B           D              A
They had less than they guessed but more than they knew
F#m           B            D               A
  That second song was the best they could do
    F#m        B                D
And all of the while there were two:
G                  D
one eyed green and one eyed blue


[Instrumental]
A  Bm  G  D E

[Verse]
A                         Bm
  They came from somewhere simple
G                            D     E
  A place too plain to be described
A                     Bm
  She found her own dimensions
G                           D   E
  Ran like the color of her eyes

A               Bm
She looked with one eye green
G                    D   E
  And one eye cobalt blue
A               Bm
He looked right back at them
G                          D      E
  And shivered through and through


[Chorus]
         F#m            B           D              A
They had less than they guessed but more than they knew
F#m           B            D               A
  That second song was the best they could do
    F#m        B                D
And all of the while there were two:
G                  D
one eyed green and one eyed blue

A  Bm  G  D E x2


[Verse]
A                   Bm
  He heard his name ring hollow
G                         D      E
  as it sputtered from her mouth
A                   Bm
  He heard the door frame shudder
G                          D    E
  as she shuttled from the house

A           Bm
She left one green eyed child
G                   D    E
  and one with cobalt blue
A           Bm
He held them close at hand
    G
and wondered what he would
D                       E
wondered what he would do


[Chorus]
         F#m            B           D              A
They had less than they guessed but more than they knew
F#m           B            D               A
  That second song was the best they could do
    F#m        B                D
And all of the while there were two:
G                  D
one eyed green and one eyed blue
