Verse 1:
(fingerpicked)
           Am              Bm/A   
Martha she listens for the ticking
       Am
 of my footsteps,
Bm/A        Am  Bm/A
     patiently
    Am              Bm/A          
She sifts the hairy air that's 
      Am
warm and woodswept,
Bm/A         Am  Bm/A
     pleasantly

She does as she pleases, she listens
 for me

Martha she calls to me from a 
feather in the meadow, fly to me
You can dance and sing and walk with
 me,
and dreams will fade and shadows 
grow (??, something that
                                    
   rhymes with 'me')

Bb              Ab           F   
She does as she pleases, she 
  Eb        Bb / / / Eb / Ab /
waits there for me
Bb              Ab           C   
She does as she pleases, her 
  Bb       Am / / / Bm/A / / /
heels rise for me

(guitar solo over { Am / / / Bm/A / 
/ / } repeated)

Verse 3:

My love she talks to waking windows 
as she murmurs to her feet,
                                    
                    thoughtfully
She separates in laughter to her 
side, caught for me

She does as she pleases, she waits 
there for me
She does as she pleases, her heels 
rise for me

Verse 4:

Martha she keeps her heart in a 
broken clock, and it's waiting
                                    
                    there for me
She weaves apart through a token 
lock, what a great thing to be free
Am
She weeps, tired and starts 
unspoken, but when the gate swings,
There she'll be
There she'll be

(no accompaniment)
In green sun
On blue earth
Under warm running shower
