Honey Jars

[Intro] Db  Bbm  Db  Bbm  Db  Bbm

Gb                 Db
I pick up a broken comb
         Bbm                Db
Run it through my thin grey hair
         Ebm            Bbm
Though I don’t have any plans tonight
        Gb             Db
I’m not going anywhere
           Gb                 Db
Well, I should’ve seen this coming
         Bbm            Db
Don’t know why I’m surprised
        Ebm            Bbm
Every vessel on its way down
                   Gb
Takes with it the captain’s life

          Db                  Bbm
Though I’m blind, my dear, I see
       Db       Ab     Bbm
The parade goes on without me
         Db                   F7
My body aches, my mind, it weeps
     Gb
For you, for you

( Db  Bbm  Db  Bbm  Db  Bbm )

              Gb                 Db
Tonight I’m locked outside my building
        Bbm                 Db
Guess I must have lost the keys
        Ebm             Bbm
So I’ll sit here on the sidewalk
         Gb               Db
Let the snow fall on my knees
            Gb          Db
And if I made it to a payphone
      Bbm                 Db
I don’t know who I would call
              Ebm             Bbm
So for now I close my eyes and rest
     Gb
My crooked back against the wall

( Db  Gb  Db  Gb  Db  Gb )

             Gb               Db
I read that old men will see visions
     Bbm               Db
Young men will follow dreams
     Ebm             Bbm
I believed it when I read it
       Gb               Db
I see your face in everything
          Gb             Db
Now your honey jars are frozen
        Bbm                    Db
In the window your books have browned
        Ebm                Bbm
And there’s too much room inside our bed
                 Gb
I think I’ll join you in the ground

            Db              Bbm
Though I’m blind, my dear, I see
         Db     Ab     Bbm
Let the chorus sing without me
          Db                   F7
My body breaks, my mind it sleeps
     Gb
With you  oh oh oh
