Aadd4 : XX0220

Amadd11 : XX0210

        D             D 
All the hard-drinking stiffs 
    G               D
Are asleep on their cots 
    G        F#m        Em          A 
And fog's in barrels on Totten Pond Road 
        D        Aadd4
And the sots who remain 
       Amadd11     G
Strike matches and crane 
           Bm               G          Asus4  A
Cause they can't make their way in the dark 
      
       D
It's a hard parlor game 
        G           D             G 
Playing miscues and pratfalls for laughs 
     F#m           Em          A 
From sad sacks and fairweather friends 

          D             Aadd4 
You don't have to catch on 
       Amadd1           G 
Lay it out and be gone 
          Bm            G         Asus4  D
There's a calm's been a long time coming 


D       Asus4   G        D
Mary oh Mary go find the light 
                     Am          Em      G
Take a hit from your whiskey and stumble inside 
       D              Bm              F#m         G 
It's a tune from your childhood and a soft yellow moon 
        Bm           G              Asus4  D
And the firelight is just right for dancing 


         D
Like the cruel April air 
      G           D
Plays muse to the hopeless 
        G           F#m             Em        A
And the storms coax sunflowers from mossy old hills 
         D             Aadd4
May this song find you there 
        Amadd1      G
In your embroidered chair 
          Bm         G    Asus4    D 
With your afghan and warm Darjeeling 

D       Asus4   G        D
Mary oh Mary go find the light 
                     Am          Em      G
Take a hit from your whiskey and stumble inside 
       D              Bm              F#m         G 
It's a tune from your childhood and a soft yellow moon 
        Bm           G              Asus4   D
And the firelight is just right for dancing
