A                  E
  Oh mercy, in the leaves so green
     A
That brush against my hands
        E
Let the wind sing us our love songs
      A                E
As we sift within your sands
A                E
Don't answer any prayers they have
     A
Just lift our callous hearts
         E
With the bursting rays of August
         D                 E    A
And your cold raindrops of March
