[Intro] A Bm F#m F#m x6 [Verse 1]
A                 Bm      F#m
Wrap me up in roots on a summer day

A                 Bm      F#m
Kick off your boots, come out and play

A        Bm     F#m
Come outside into the daylight

A                    Bm                       F#m
Traipse across the yard, throw stones at my window in the dead of night
[Bridge]
D  E  F#m
Oh oh oh

D  E  F#m  E
Oh oh ohhh
[Chorus]
A                  Bm   F#m                D
When the dust settles, when the kettle's dry

      A             Bm                F#m           D
I realize you have always been the favorite in my eyes

             A          Bm                F#m   D
I loved you best, still, everything must rest
[Solo] A Bm F#m F#m A Bm F#m D [Verse 2]
A         Bm                F#m
When you left I was like a hive without a bee

A                      Bm              F#m
Carved up, withered, twisted like some old dead tree

A          Bm         F#m
I layеd about in the tall grass hiding out

A                       Bm                   F#m
'Til they hit me with sticks and plungеd me deep into the sound
[Bridge]
D  E  F#m  F#m
Oh oh don't

D  E  C#m  E
Oh oh ohh
[Chorus]
A              Bm    F#m                  D
When the dust settles, when the kettle's dry

      A             Bm                F#m           D
I realize you have always been the favorite in my eyes

         A             Bm  F#m                       D
I was a mess when you left, one foot in front of the other

         A                   Bm                    F#m  D
I was a mess, it's a bitter pill, everything must rest
[Instrumental] F#m D A A F#m D A A [Verse 3]
D           E             F#m   F#m
I felt no freedom being free

D            E        C#m           E
My time was just another chore for me
[Chorus]
A              Bm    F#m                  D
When the dust settles, when the kettle's dry

      A             Bm                F#m           D
I realize you have always been the favorite in my eyes

         A             Bm  F#m                       D
I was a mess when you left, one foot in front of the other

         A             Bm  F#m                     D
I was a mess when you left, there was no place to hide

         A             Bm     F#m                             D
I was a mess when you left, I had to put the coins over your eyes

         A           Bm           D                       A
I was a mess, I was bereft, still, everything must rest
