by Emily Saliers performed by The Indigo Girls Acoustic version with guitar solo: https://youtube.com/watch?v=GNr3tNmZun8 Em9/B x24030 [Intro] Em D/F# Cadd9 G D/F# [Verse 1]
Em           D/F#           Cadd9  
Looking out across suburban yards

       G                D/F#
To the construct of our days through the thinning of the trees

    Em          D/F#             Cadd9
How come I only build a house of cards

          G                      D/F#
That gets blown to pieces by the fall's first fickle breeze

Am7              Em9/B           C         D
When I feel that stirring, the illicit kiss

                Am7              Em9/B          C             D
That's just the cool tongue of the devil with a sucker in his midst
[Chorus]
G       D/F#         Em            A              C    D
One day I'll change, you'll be the first one that I call

  G           D/F#    Em       A                   C   D
I owe you an apology, too many thanks and that's not all

                 Cadd9           D                 G
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
[Verse 2]
   Em            D/F#             Cadd9
My calendar lies crumbled laid to waste

          G                                D/F# 
It's been scrawled on, thumbed through and changed

Em               D/F#          Cadd9
Will this be the measure of my days?

G                            D/F#
Dinners and appointments and deadlines I can't make

    Am7             Em9/B            C         D
And when I start to feel it making sense for me

            Am7 Em9/B        C      D
That's just hope springing eternally
[Chorus]
G       D/F#        Em               A               C    D
One day I'll change, you'll be the first one that I call

  G           D/F#   Em        A                     C   D
I owe you an apology, too many thanks and that's not all

                 Cadd9           D                 G
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
[Bridge]
            C                 G
Outside the summer's gone for good

        F                   C
Dying impatiens, stacked-up wood

                                G
My friends will get together to cook

                  D/F#                    Am7 D
Talk about what's happened, take a second look
[Guitar Solo] Em D/F# Cadd9 G D/F# Em D/F# Cadd9 G D/F# Am7 Em9/B C D Am7 Em9/B C D [Verse 3]
    Em               D/F#              Cadd9
The master loves the servant who blind heeds him

    G                     D/F#
The husband, the obedient wife

    Em                D/F#               Cadd9
The snake will always bite the hand that feeds him

G                          D/F#
Even if you love him, even if you save his life 
[Chorus]
G       D/F#         Em            A              C    D
One day I'll change, you'll be the first one that I call

  G           D/F#    Em       A                   C   D
I owe you an apology, too many thanks and that's not all

                 Cadd9           D                 G
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
