This is a more correct version I think than the other one, the previous version had way 
too many chord changes that werereally just little runs played between the main chords 
listed here.

[Intro]
Am

C               G       Am
We came in this world together

G                        Am
Legs wrapped 'round each other

F
My cheek against my sister's

         C        G       Am
We were born like tangled vine

C         G         Am
We lived along the river

          G                   Am
Where the black clouds never lingered

     F
The sunlight spread like honey

            C       G    Am
Through my sister's tiny hands

C                  G     Am
But while picking sour apples

    G               Am
In the wild waving grasses

       F
Sister stumbled in the brier

        C      G    Am
And was bitten by a snake

[Bridge]
F Am


[Chorus]
G                      Am
Every creature casts a shadow

G                       C
Under the sun's golden finger

G                               Am
But when the sun sinks past the waving grass

G                         Am
Some shadows are dragged along


C        G        Am
Alone, I took to drinking

G                Am
Bottles of cheap whiskey

     F
And staggering through the back woods

         C            G         Am
Killing snakes with a sharpened stick

C           G         Am
But still I heard her laughing

       G             Am
In the wild waving grasses

          F
Still her tiny hands went splashing

       C        G        Am
At the river's sparkling shore

C            G     Am
So I took my rusty gas can

G               Am
And an old iron shovel

   F
I set the woods to burning

                C    G       Am
And choked the river up with stones


[Bridge]
F Am


[Chorus]
G                      Am
Every creature casts a shadow

G                       C
Under the sun's golden finger

G                               Am
But when the sun sinks past the waving grass

G                         Am
Some shadows are dragged along
