Key:
F [Chorus]
F Dm You're too low to see me smiling
Bb Eb F Bb When I'm flying in the air
Gm C F But you're too high to frighten me
C Dm G Pretend you didn't see me
G7 C F Pretend you didn't need me
C Dm G Pretend you didn't see me
G7 C Pretend you didn't need me
Bb Gm7 C To frighten away all the lost and the lonely
Eb Bb F The sacred forgotten of yesterday's problems [Interlude]
F [Verse]
Dm F Bb Your wooden construction
Continues after the ad
Eb F Bb was meant for infliction
G Gm To penetrate pain with the
C thoughts from my mind
Dm Can you see me scarecrow
Am Can you still feel free
Dm For all your love scarecrow
Bb C And will you still be there tomorrow
Bb C And will you still be there tomorrow
F Dm Bb Like moths around a light bulb,
Eb F Bb your brain is still bleeding
Gm From visions and pictures of
C F nature's young raincoat
Dm G If only my eyes
C F were not pinned to your table
C Dm G My arms would be grasping
C Bb the lilac of summer
Gm C It's no good to me a scarecrow can see
Eb Bb And I've said it before, and I'll say it some more [Interlude]
F [Chorus]
F Dm You're too low to see me smiling
Bb Eb F Bb When I'm flying in the air
Gm C F But you're too high to frighten me
Dm Can you see me scarecrow
Am Can you still feel free
Dm For all your love scarecrow
Bb C And will you still be there tomorrow
Bb C And will you still be there tomorrow
