Gray Green

INTRO: C  Dm  F  G  (2x)

C    Dm          F      G       
Gray green - his baby's eyes are
 C    G      Dm
 gray green
           G    Am     G     F
She closes them, sleep comes
         C    G       C
To carry her away


         Dm  F      G     C  G   Dm
He's singing: noni, noni, noni
     G     Am          G    F
Even though she's long gone
       C G
Down into his arms


  Dm Am    F          C          
A siren is crying way off in the 
Dm Am
distance
F           C           G
Calling her back to the world

C  Dm   F             G 
Outside, the midnight sky is 
     C         G  Dm
clearing
          G      Am   G      F
The Three Marias shine down
             C         G
And find her where she dreams


C  Dm    F                G    
So sweet, the breeze that stirs
     C         G  Dm
 the curtains
                G       Am G  F
The breeze they send to tease
          C    G
Her hair across her eyes


    Dm Am F             C 
The siren climbs like a thief 
                Dm Am
through the window
F           C           G
Calling her back to the world


INSTRUMENTAL:    Dm  Am   F   C  

 Dm  Am  F  C  G


   C   Dm  F          G     C  
He chooses, asks them to 
       G    Dm
forgive him
          G     Am  G    F
The Three Marias winking
             C      G      C
He pulls the window down


     Dm          F      G        
Gray green - his baby's eyes are 
C    G      Dm
gray green
           G    Am     G      F
She closes them, sleep comes
         C    G
To carry her away
