[Intro] Am G F E (x2) [Verse 1]
Am                     G                          F
   Say, say somethin' nice to her, fragrant and sturdier

         E
Delicate  hands for shoulders sliding down

Am                    G                             F
   Days, days like a summer rain, blink and they're gone again

            E
Soakin' she   sits alone, outside and down
[Chorus]
F                       Am                        G
  Prays, prays for her soldier boy, in fire and angry noise

          E
Under the   thumb of the Lord

F                         Am                    G
  And waits, quiltin' and quietly, her minor piano keys

                 E
Slip through the   screen on the door
[Instrumental] Am G F E (x2) F Am G E (x2) [Verse 2]
Am                     G                      F
   Say, say what you mean to her, washing her colander

            E
Eyes on the   stranger cresting around the bend

Am                        G                     F
   Days, days like the winter snow, linger 'til heaven knows

           E
Naked, she   sings the table grace and then
[Chorus]
F                       Am                        G
  Prays, prays for her soldier boy, in fire and angry noise

          E
Under the   thumb of the Lord

F                         Am                    G
  And waits, quiltin' and quietly, her minor piano keys

                 E
Slip through the   screen on the door
[Outro] Am G F E (x2)
