Song For November

Em


[Verse 1]
C       G        D            Em
Dry the flowers, file the sheet-music
C    G          D      Em
Save me for the fire
C  G        D      Em
I spent the day forgetting
    C          G       D     Em
The dream that woke me up


[Verse 2]
    C         G
The garden is empty
    D         Em
And I still remember why
C      G            D        Em
I'm so reluctant to start it again
C       G
Eternal November
D                  Em        C    G D Em
Shines through the marrow of me


[Verse 3]
  C     G     D         Em
I never was a very good fighter
C    G          D       Em
They started me young
C          G        D         Em
You always were the very best lover

C      G        D     Em
That I couldn't love, yeah


[Verse 4]
    C               G          D           Em
The years they will make you a pretty good runner
     C         G              D           Em
Yeah I've been running around all of this time
C           G     D           Em
Shot in the dark, down in the shadows
C           G      D  Em
Waiting for when
          C           G      D  Em   C        G      D Em
Yeah just waiting for when ......the coast is clear


[Bridge]
         C
You were running around so you'd never remember this
Em            D          C
Fear lights a fire under you
C
And all you leave behind are the smoke and the ashes
  Em       D        C
A trail of grey and blue


[Instrumental]
Em  C G D G
Em  C G D Em

[Verse 5]
C        G        D   Em
Blame me dear for any disaster
C     G        D        Em
Oh how the kerosene ran dry
    C           G           D        Em
And we made our bed in that familiar graveyard
C           G       D       Em
Between the sternum and the spine


[Verse 6]
   C         G          D         Em
Oh darling I think that all of the answers
     C            G              D           Em
Went south on the backs of those grey-winged birds
   C                   G
Or slipped through our fingers
D              Em
While we were sleeping
C           G      D  Em
Waiting for when
          C            G     D Em    C         G      D Em
Yeah just waiting for when....  the coast is clear


[Verse 7]
C         G       D            Em
Along the way the light is the medicine
C         G      D              Em
Along the way we search for the sun
   C       G        D    Em
To call us down the dark corridor
     C        G        D Em
Back into the world
