[Instrumental] D, Dsus2, G x 2 [Verse 1]
      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
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame

         D              Dsus2         G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
[Verse 2]
      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
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame

         D              Dsus2         G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
[Verse 3]
         A                   
I dreamt I saw you walking

          G
up a hillside in the snow

         A                   
Casting shadows on the winter sky

          G
as you stood there counting crows

             A
One for sorrow Two for joy

          G
Three for girls and four for boys

             A
Five for silver, Six for gold and

          G
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
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame

         D              Dsus2         G
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
[Bridge]
         D        
Open up your eyes

                  Dsus2          G
You can see the flames, flames flames

         D        
of your wasted life

                  Dsus2          G
You should be ashamed
N.C. You don't want to waste your life, now baby N.C. You don't want to waste your life, now darlin' (repeat 3x) [Outro]
D                   G
Change, change, change
(repeat 3x)
D
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine

G
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
(repeat 3x)
D                   G
Change, change, change
(repeat 3x)
