...and that's it.
sorry I don't have a song structure for you, but i don't feel like doing it right
now...it's easy enough to figure out. to get the best sound, use a single-coil in the
middle position
I do, however, have the lyrics
dead leaves and the dirty ground
when i know you're not around
shiny tops and soda pops
when i hear your lips make a sound
thirty notes in the mailbox
will tell you that i'm coming home
and i think i'm gonna stick around
for a while so you're not alone
if you can hear a piano fall
you can hear me coming down the hall
if i could just her your pretty voice
i don't think i need to see at all
soft hair and a velvet tongue
i want to give you what you give to me
and every breath that is in your lungs
is a tiny little gift to me
i didn't feel so bad till the sun went down
then i come home
no one to wrap my arms around
well any man with a microphone
can tell you what he loves the most
and you know why you love at all
if your thinking of the holy ghost
