Tuning:
I made this on my ukulele, so it may be different for guitars. Let me know if there are any changes to make!
CDriven through by her Emown Fsword
CSummer died Emlast nigGht,F alone
EEmven the ghostsG huddled Fup for Amwarmth
CAutumn has Emcome to Gmy homeFtown
CFriendly voices, Emdead and Fgone
CSinging, StEmar of the Gcountry dFown
(EEmven the Gghosts help Fraise the Ambarn
CHere nEmow in Gmy hFometown)
When Dout of the massing
that Cbodes aGnd bides, In the Fcold AWest D
Flew a waxCwing who froze Gand died against Fmy brAeast D
And Dall the while, raCin, like a weed Gin the tide, Fswans aAnd lisDps
Down on the Cgossiping lawnGs, saying, "Ftsk, Atsk, Dtsk"
I Cmay have Emchanged
It's Ghard to Fgauge
TCime won't acEmcount for Ghow I've aFged
EmWould I couldG tie your lFying tonAmgue
Who sCays that lEmeaving kGeeps you yFoung
CAnd I have Emgot noG contFrol
COver myEm heart, ovGer my miFnd
EmOver theG hills, the Frainclouds Amroll
I'll Cwinter Emhere, waitG for a Fsign
DTo cast myself out Cover the Gwater
Riven like a FwishboneA D
You'd hardly guess
DI was my ownC mother's daughterG
I ain't Fnaturally Agiven to Droam.
And I lay low Dwhen I rCeturn
And I move like a Ggurney whose Fwheels are Asqueaking D
DAlone in a Chome
And I Glaugh when you speak
Of my Fpleasure-Aseekin' D
CAmong the Gta - Fll Gpines
DAlong the Cle-Gy lFines
CHere, where the Glo-Fon Gkeens.
DThere, where the Cmo-Gon lFeans
CThere, where I Gknow my Fviolent love Glays
Ddown, in a Crow of Gsilent Fdove-greAy dDays
CHere in a Grow of Fsilent Gdove-grey days
CWherever I Emgo, I Gam snow-Fbound
CBy thoughts of Emhim whom GI would sFhun
EmI love them Gall, Fone by Amone
CCannot gain Emground
GCannot Foutrun
CBut time mEmarchGes aFlong
CYou can't aEmlways sGtick arFound
EmBut when the Gfinal Fcount is dAmone
CI will Embe in Gmy homeFtown
CI will Gbe in Fmy homeCtown
