[Verse 1]
G C
In this autumn town where the leaves can fall
G C
On either side of the garden wall
G C D
We laugh all night to keep the embers glowin'
G C
Some are leapin' free from their moving cars
G C
Stackin' stones 'round their broken hearts
G C D
Waving down any wind that might come blowin'
[Verse 2]
G C
Mice move out when the field is cut
G C
Serpents curl when the sun comes up
G C D
Songbirds only end up where they're goin'
G C
Some get rain and some get snow
G C
Some want love and some want gold
G D C
I just want to see you in the mornin'
[Hook]
G C
Dogs lay down in the evenin' heat
G C
Fish do worse when they leave the sea
G C D
Songbirds only end up where they're goin'
[Verse 3]
G C
In this autumn town where the lights can change
G C
Some get mercy and some get blame
G C D
Some get lost when they feel the river flowin'
G C
It's all holy smoke and the flame dies fast
G C
We hold our hats while the days fly past
G C D
Cold wind comes and we wave but it keeps goin'
[Hook 2]
G C
Fathers, Sons and Holy Ghosts
G C
All come back or they all come close
G C D
Songbirds only end up where they're going
[Verse 4]
G C
Some get hard and some go home
G C
Some want flesh and some want bone
G D C
I just want to see you in the mornin'
G D C G
