EAST JEFFERSON, by Ben Weaver
From the Album: Mirepoix and Smoke (2010, Bloodshot Records)
Capo II
[Intro]
E C#m
E C#m
[Verse section]
E C#m
The Ashtray was full of orange peels
E C#m
when you woke up the dream wasn’t real
A E
The sky like a bruise.
A C#m
Smokin’ your last cigarette on the stoop
B E
At the end of the night
E C#m
The cold wind blew through the swings in the park
E C#m
By dinner time it was already dark
A E
The rain had turned to snow
A C#m
Everything whiter than a hundred ghosts
B E
At the end of the night
E C#m
Count the roads and count your friends
E C#m
In case you have to walk home in the end
A E
Before I change my mind
A C#m
Or you draw the line
B E B
At the end of the night
[Chorus]
A
At the end of the night
C#m G#m A B
There are no more stars left in the sky
C#m G#m A B
And all the black turns into white
[Verse section]
E C#m
On a dead end street where the train goes past
E C#m
Raking leaves into piles on the grass
A E
No matter how clear things appear
A C#m
We never get closer than our fear
B E
At the end of the night
E C#m
Like a tree I can’t identify
E C#m
Those eyes defiant and insecure at the same time
A E
Where we stood in the road
A C#m
Your hair on my coat Your smell in my clothes
B E
At the end of the night
E C#m
I fell asleep, trying to stay awake
E C#m
The footprints were lost when snow turned back to rain
A E
But if the birds made their way home
A C#m
Will you still know which way to go
B E B
At the end of the night
[Chorus]
A
At the end of the night
C#m G#m A B
There are no more stars left in the sky
C#m G#m A B
And all the black turns into white
[Outro]
E C#m
Oooh-oooh-oooh
E C#m
Oooh-oooh-oooh
A E
Oooh-oooh-oooh
A C#m
Oooh-oooh-oooh
B E
Oooh-oooh-oooh
