Intro: D G A

Verse:
DCome (xx0232@1)the evening of my days
                       G (320003@1)              AThe (x02220@1)dark birds in the trees and in her garden
DI (xx0232@1)think I'll be there somewhere too
                 G (320003@1)                 AThe (x02220@1)yarrow by my head where I have fallen

And she will lick her thinner thumb
And ringless finger too and douse a candle
And though she never gave a thing
The way she said my name, we'll be together

Chorus:
G (320003@1)           A (x02220@1)             GWhen (320003@1)autumn comes, she'll be there
          A (x02220@1)          GJasmine (320003@1)still in her hair
                A (x02220@1)        DHer (xx0232@1)tea leaves dry by the sea

Verse:
Many men behind her door
Have heard the bathtub run and longed to love her
And though she doesn't wait for me
We never ask the time when we're together
