D       D
I drove down your road
C            C
to Hazeldean where I tasted
D            D      C              C
your funeral home's sandwiches and coffee
D                D    C        C
I saw your hands melt into one another
D         D
I saw you grieve and grow
C               C
care alot about one another

C

D       D
I stood at your sink
C          C
and I felt your warm water
D        D
I washed your dishes
C                     C
and I looked out your kitchen window where I
D     D
saw a soulful gymnast
C           C
melt in the air and shudder
D          D
just above the snow
C                 C                   C
making moves that just weren't there

D            C      D              C
Ah                  
D            C      D              C
Ah                  

D      D           C
Velvet callow with wet hands
         C
I turned out the lights and
D         D       C
breathing shallow hesitated
          C
then went upstairs where
  D              D         C                  C
I picked up your housecoat dried my hands and touched your hair
    D             D
and just then you awoke
C                      C
you could never really barely care

D            C      D              C
Ah           

D            C      D              C
