[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Well there is [G]something 'bout the quiet,
uplifting [C]laughter
[G]You've just [D]spent so many years
chased by [G]a cloud, [D]oh
It's [G]taken you so far,
far past [C]the cliff's edge
And now [D]your feet just poke around
to feel [G]the ground, [D]oh

[Verse 2]
[C]You say "is this [G]a joke," I float
"come on now"
You see there's something
down [C]below
Just let me fall to be of use,
make me [G]the rainstorm
Just a piece of hail, you [C]know
[D]

[Verse 3]
You said, [C]"all the time it needs to take
An[Am]d all the [D]time there is a shiver
from some [G]fallen tear
But is it [C]on this lack of fallen luck
To [Am]dream of [D]things like a little river to the
[G]golden ground?"

[Interlude 1]
[C][D][Em][G]

[Verse 4]
And there [G]is something 'bout
the quiet surprise in darkness
[C]You just sin[D]g about your own
death in [G]your closet[D]
[G]You stumble out into the pitch-
black [C]hallway
You think [D]you've lost so many times
though it's not [G]war [D]yet

[Verse 5]
[C]You say "are these my eyes?"
You [G]said "come on now,
already lost my sense [C]to feel"
But there is always someone out
there [G]who will listen
And then there's nothing
but a [C]dream
[D]

[Verse 6]
You said, [G]"all the [C]time it needs to take
[Am]And all the t[D]ime there is a shiver
from some [G]fallen tear
But is it [C]on this lack of fallen luck
To dream of [D]things like a little river to [G]the golden

ground?"
[G][C][D][Em][G][D][Em]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 7]
And there [G]is something 'bout
the leaving of a lov[C]er
You [G]think you [D]knew through all the year's
you've been [G]a woman[D]
And he's [G]stepping out and walks
out of the [C]garden
Where all the [D]lilies and all the weeds
came from his [G]cold [D]hand
You [C]say "is this my life," you said
"come [G]on now"
You see the diamonds when [C]you yell,
That let you stay in all the
corners [G]I have been here
But now you travel, go to hell
[C][D]

[Verse 8]
You said, [C]"all the time it needs to take
An[Am]d all the [D]time there is a shiver
from some [G]fallen tear
But is it on this [C]lack of fallen luck
To [Am]dream of [D]things like a little river [G]to the golden
