INTRO: E7

EURYDICE:
 E
Lover, tell me if you can
Who?s gonna buy the wedding bands?
 G6          E
Times being what they are
 G6              A9           E
Hard and getting harder all the time

ORPHEUS:
 E
Lover, when I sing my song
All the rivers sing along
     G6                        E
And they?re gonna break their banks for me
To lay their gold around my feet
All the flashing in the pan, all the fashion for your hand
     G6            A9               E
The river's gonna give us the wedding bands

EURYDICE:
 E
Lover, tell me, if you?re able
Who?s gonna lay the wedding table?
 G6          E
Times being what they are
 G6               A9          E
Dark and getting darker all the time

ORPHEUS:
 E
Lover, when I sing my song
All the trees gonna sing along
     G6                  E
And bend their branches down to me
To lay their fruit around my feet
The almond and the apple
And the sugar from the maple
     G6         A9            E
The trees gonna lay the wedding table

Notes:

-I transcribed this from a youtube video and she plays it in B.  I believe the studio 
recording is in C, which would mean capo 8 with these chord shapes.
-fairly basic travis picking pattern; do whatever sounds right to you.
-Eurydice is the female part and Orpheus is the male part.
