D
Abigail, the shore is frozen,
G                                   F#m
Our tar trails have been bulldozin' down
Bm
Your sharpened frown,
E           A  A/G
Once had me possessed

[Verse]
D
Do you recall the crippled summer?,

     G
Your fam'ly all was in deep slumber
F#m           Bm
And oh how I loved their ways
     E                   A  A/G
When Leland's haze still lingered

Your brother he didn't have to die,

Your mother she didn't have to cry

Your father didn't have to ask why
E                  A  A/G
summer was on your chest

[Verse]
D
All our drugstore lawns blew cool so fast,
    G
The mill was never built to last
    F#m                 Bm
The tort'rous thrill of sweating grass
   E                A  A/G
Is this town's only sorrowed

[Verse]
    D
And if I was branded to your foyer
        G
Through passing carpenters and lawyers
  F#m         Bm
Agrarians and God's own soldiers
E             A  A/G
I would never make it

G                     A
Do you still dream of dangerous hotels
F#m                   Bm
Wrapped in glares and daffodil smells
G                  Bm        Bb  A
With your barefeet buried in weeds?

I still dream of snarled backyards
    F#m                  Bm
And being chased through nighttime's discards
G              Bm                  Bb  A
Where my fence reddens, rusts, and bleeds

And the curbs are haunted by the killers
   F#m         Bm
Of memories of your back pillars
G             Bm           Bb  A
Where nothing wakens as it seems

All our rooms are hopeful mornings
F#m                 Bm
Left like tombs when nights are swarming
G             Bm               Bb  A
And branching feathers fan our dreams

And your star was the saddest symbol
F#m                 Bm
Flickered with your mother's thimble
G           A
Pitiful and sunsoaked soggy
F#m         Bm
Beautiful inside the muggy
G              Bm            Bb  A
Ashamed of our bodies in the stream

Ah but spring's dumbed voice is just like yours
       G
And if I had a choice I'd do my chores
F#m          Bm
And my work would dumbfound

And no one else could understand the truth
       G
Of the soil burning back to youth

It's just something that we found
    E                     A     A/G
But now it all thaws damp around you

And the streets are dry and bare, but they're humming
    G                                   F#m
The rooftops where the air stops coming down
          Bm
To listen for the sound

Of the tests that surround you

I said, "Abigal the shore is frozen!"
G                                     F#m
Our tar trails, they're all bulldozen now
    Bm                   E
Your bygone sounds are cidada-bound,
           A  A/G          [Riff 1]          D  Cadd9
They're so shrilling, and night-smoke tarry,
           A     A/G    [Riff 1]         D  Cadd9
You should spill them into the starry,
          A   A/G       [Riff 1]        D
They are children, and no one's sorry.
