C5     A5        G5          C5
oh my love as a light as a dove
C5              A5        G5          C5
as skinny as fair and dark is her hair
A5                C5          G5          C5
and her eyes dart round and fall on the ground
A5                  C5        G5           F5
and her lips move along to an old country song

( F5 )

C5                    A5             G5     C5
oh down south you'll find among the high pines
C5              A5             G5     C5
an old liquor store where we danced on the floor
A5                   C5           G5        C5
oh the light on the wall it lightens the hall
A5                  C5           G5         F5
but the room in the back is quiet and black

C5               A5          G5          C5
what keeps me alive is the greed in your eyes
C5                A5               G5             C5
and the sweetness and drone of your voice on the phone
A5            C5             G5         C5
but i hear in death your voice and breath
A5            C5             G5         F5
but I hear them sounds in life underground

C5               A5          G5           C5
oh how likely she was among the white stars
C5               A5          G5           C5
and craning her neck she steps round the deck
A5              C5             G5         C5
and i bow in the sand to your lily white hand
A5              C5             G5         F5
and my head gently rests in your lily white breast
