G                                     C9                        G
Further from my widowed home take the road that sets it to the sun, 
      G                           C9                        G
Waiting for my skin and bone to return and see what I've become, 
Em                           C9                     G
Summer has not yet been here though my days are long, 
Em                                           C                    G
Take me back to when the night was young and another song was sung. 

G                                  C9                            G
What of all those pretty tales the ones that took me to this door, 
      G                                C9                            G
Is it comfort in the salvers way is it comfort upon this wooden floor, 
Em                             C9                       G
Tell you is it a failure to forget the ones that self it, 
Em                             C9                     G
And I tried to remember but my mind is no longer clean. 

G  Em  C9  G

C9              G    D     Em
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh Oh,    You recognize me, 
C9    G      D         Em       C9
    I follow from, far from the trees, 
    G          D       Em    C9
The woods came out, on to my knees, 
  G       D
I twisted round, 
          C9            G
I made no sound      No sound

G                                     C9                             G
I'll wonder till my brittle bones has come and pulled me to the stone, 
G                                          C9                         G
Further from the towns you've known I will remain from where I have begun, 
Em                          C9                       G
Summer before I start I was kicking home stones as a child, 
Em                                              C9                    
In the meadow when the storm came through and I followed straight back to 
G
you. 

C9              G    D     Em
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh Oh,    You recognize me, 
C9    G      D         Em       C9
    I follow from, far from the trees, 
    G          D       Em    C9
The woods came out, on to my knees, 
  G       D
I twisted round, 
          C9            G
I made no sound      No sound

G                            C9                    G
Would you ever doubt my love    when my day is done, 
G                         C9                    G
I'll lay down my body within this earth I've won, 
Em                          C9                 G
Would you try to follow the roads I had to walk, 
Em                                  C9               G
There's a whisper in the willow for they all hear me talk.
