Intro:  G  D  G  D

G
  In the failing light
              D
of the afternoon
G
  Lucy and the shade
                  D
of the dogwood blooms
F                G
  Yesterday the solace
             D
of a poison fish
F                   G
  Tomorrow i'll be kissing
                   A
on your blood red lips

G
  And noone has the savior
                    D
they would like to be
G
  The love song of the buzzard
                  D
and the dogwood tree
F                          G
  With the train of horses laughing
                     D
through the traffic light
F                     G
  And the cradles unimaginative
           A
sense of time
