Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I made this on my ukulele, so it may be different for guitars. Let me know if there are any changes to make!
C Em F
Driven through by her own sword
C Em G F
Summer died last night, alone
Em G F Am
Even the ghosts huddled up for warmth
C Em G F
Autumn has come to my hometown
C Em F
Friendly voices, dead and gone
C Em G F
Singing, Star of the country down
Em G F Am
(Even the ghosts help raise the barn
C Em G F
Here now in my hometown)
D
When out of the massing
C G F A D
that bodes and bides, In the cold West
C G F A D
Flew a waxwing who froze and died against my breast
D C G F A D
And all the while, rain, like a weed in the tide, swans and lisps
C G F A D
Down on the gossiping lawns, saying, "tsk, tsk, tsk"
C Em
I may have changed
G F
It's hard to gauge
C Em G F
Time won't account for how I've aged
Em G F Am
Would I could tie your lying tongue
C Em G F
Who says that leaving keeps you young
C Em G F
And I have got no control
C Em G F
Over my heart, over my mind
Em G F Am
Over the hills, the rainclouds roll
C Em G F
I'll winter here, wait for a sign
D C G
To cast myself out over the water
F A D
Riven like a wishbone
You'd hardly guess
D C G
I was my own mother's daughter
F A D
I ain't naturally given to roam.
D C
And I lay low when I return
G F A D
And I move like a gurney whose wheels are squeaking
D C
Alone in a home
G
And I laugh when you speak
F A D
Of my pleasure-seekin'
C G F G
Among the ta - ll pines
D C G F
Along the le-y lines
C G F G
Here, where the lo-on keens.
D C G F
There, where the mo-on leans
C G F G
There, where I know my violent love lays
D C G F A D
down, in a row of silent dove-grey days
C G F G
Here in a row of silent dove-grey days
C Em G F
Wherever I go, I am snow-bound
C Em G F
By thoughts of him whom I would shun
Em G F Am
I love them all, one by one
C Em
Cannot gain ground
G F
Cannot outrun
C Em G F
But time marches along
C Em G F
You can't always stick around
Em G F Am
But when the final count is done
C Em G F
I will be in my hometown
C G F C
I will be in my hometown
C Em F
Driven through by her own sword
C Em G F
Summer died last night, alone
Em G F Am
Even the ghosts huddled up for warmth
