Chords

           D
Ive got rippling waters to wake me

       D7                     G
To be more than my woman in love

                     D                             A7
All pine trees are pointing to see easily To see heaven above 

D
Blue spruce flaming on the grate in the evening

C                     G    Em                 B7
Takes the chill away fine Cut the telephone line

                  E
The storys the same 

D
Theres a worn red chair by the window

          D7                       G
That you found at a sale down the way

           G
When some old women said that they

   D                      A7
Needed more room for the winter 

D
People like pulling at the stuffing When they sit down

C                G     Em                  B7
So it passes the time  Cut the telephone line

                 E
The storys the same 

A                             E
Ooh, like a bubble on a windy day

                                  A
Start to flutter when I hear you say

                              B7
That you feel too good to go away

         E                     
And you make me feel fine

   A                               E
And you made the world a warmer place

                                 A
By the sparkle of your diamond face

                               B7
On a gray spot with a little lace

         E              B7
And you make me feel fine

            E              B7
Warm as a mountain in sunshine 

         E                B7
On the edge of the snowline

          E           A     G  A7
In a meadow of columbine 

        D
Oh little Jennifer Id give a penny for

         D7               G
What youve got on your mind

      D                                        A7
Seems like most of the time youre lying there dreaming 

D
Maybe in your vision you see how

                  C                 G
Our mission is slightly less than divine

Em                   B7                 E
Cut the telephone line  The storys the same 

  D
Now, rippling waters flow through the ceiling

             D7                        G
And the walls there, their keepin me warm

         G                         D                       A7
And the closest Ive been with my family for days  Is my music 

            D
But the silently stare in the morning sky

         C                      G
Is like hearing her calling my name

Em                  B7                     E
Cut the telephone line  The story might change 

A                             E
Ooh, like a bubble on a windy day

                                 A
Start to flutter when I hear you say

                               B7
That you feel too good to go away

         E              B7
And you make me feel fine

            E            B7
Warm as a mountain sunshine

        E                B7
On the edge of the snowline

       E              A         G    A7
In a meadow of columbine
