Chanson Du Bon Chose

E                  F
Saw the sycamore   underneath the 
moon

Am                                
I was waiting for something, and 
        C
you were sleeping

                 D
out there in the living room

           E         F
and it was 5:16 AM   the air was 
sharp and cool

Am                                
and I wondered where you buried 
  C           D
our dark little jewel


Continues after the ad
Chorus:

              G              D
and the heat (flies?) in the room

             C                    
I am digging graves, I am digging 
D
graves

               G            D
and the water boiling on the stove

             C                 D
I am digging graves, I am digg-ing 
graves


[back to first pattern]

So I held you close to me
I saw the shadows start to gather 
outside
beneath the sycamore tree
and something was changing
there was something here entirely 
new
first thing into blossom inside of 
us both
with the sun coming up and me 
holding onto you

[to chorus pattern]

and your body breath(ing) on mine
i am digging graves, i am digging 
graves
and your hands fly thru my hair
i am digging graves, i am digging 
graves
