[Verse 1]
C F C G
When you finally scaled the wall
C F Am G
Thinking you had heard the siren singing
C F C Am
What you really heard was a broken bird
C G Am
Making out like it's a dove
[Verse 2]
C F C G
When you stole the soldier's car
C F Am G
Everybody knew what you were thinking
C F C Am
Ivory towers and lover's flowers
C G Am
But no one thought you were a fool
[Chorus]
Em Am F
You never stopped to notice all
Em Am F
The stolen clothes stacked in the hall
Em Am G C
From the others who scaled the wall just to
G Am C
Find themselves fun off the road

[Verse 3]
C F C G
When you showed up at the farm
C F Am G
Visions of the summer flying past you
C F C Am
The foxes had torn up the mother and her pups
C G Am
And the well was full of flies
[Verse 4]
C F C G
When you walked down to the pond
C F Am G
Searching for the lover guiding you
C F C Am
It had been filled in with rusty nails and then
C G Am
You finally knew that you were lost
[Chorus]
Em Am F
No one thought you were a fool
Em Am F
Even though everyone knew
Em Am G C
What you wrote was the same, just a different name
G Am C
Of those who escaped before you.
