|D      |Dsus2  |G      |  Gmaj7|


VERSE:
------
     A
Blue morning, Blue morning
           G
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
A
Curiosity, Kitten, 
                G
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own
        A
You can look outside your window
   G
He doesn't have to know
       A
We can talk awhile, baby
       G
We can take it nice and slow


CHORUS:
-------
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream


VERSE:
------
         A
Are you happy when you're sleeping?
         G
Does he keep you safe and warm?
         A
Does he tell you when you're sorry?
         G
Does he tell you when you're wrong?
            A
I've been watching you for hours
            G
It's been years since we were born
             A
We were perfect when we started
           G
I've been wondering where we've gone


CHORUS:
-------
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream


BRIDGE:
-------
   A                              G
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
          A                                      G
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
        A                             G
One for sorrow Two for joy, Three for girls and four for boys
         A                                   G
Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told
           A
There's a bird that nests inside you
          G
Sleeping underneath your skin
             A
When you open up your wings to speak
   G
I wish you'd let me in


CHORUS:
-------
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream



Open up your eyes
You can see the flames flames flames of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life baby
You don't want to waste your life now darling
You don't want to waste your life baby
You don't want to waste your life now darling
You don't want to waste your life now babe
I said you don't want to waste your life now darling
You don't want to waste your life now baby
You don't want to waste your life now darling
Change, change, change

D                    G
Change, change, change
D                    G
Change, change, change

D
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine
G
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
