Eb                Eb                     
Sunday morning,     skeleton tree

Cm                    Ab         
Oh, nothing is for free

Eb               Eb             
In the window, a candle

Cm                     Ab         
Well, maybe you can see

Eb                  Db                   
Fallen leaves         thrown across the sky

Cm        Bb            
A jittery TV 

Eb                 Eb             
Glowing white like fire

Cm              Ab            
Nothing is for free

Eb            Eb                  
I called out,   I called out

Cm                Ab            
Right across the sea

Eb                      Eb             
But the echo comes back empty

Cm                 Ab            
And nothing is for free
[Instrumental] Eb Db Cm Bb Eb Eb Cm Ab [Verse 2]

Sunday morning,    skeleton tree

Cm                  Ab           
Pressed against the sky

Eb            Eb           
The jittery TV

Cm                 Ab           
Glowing white like fire

Eb                Db              
And I called out,    I called out

Cm               Bb           
Right across the sea

Eb            Eb              
I called out,   I called out

Cm                  Ab          
That nothing is for free

And it's   al----right now

And it's   al----right now

       Eb      Eb      Cm     Ab
And it's   al----right now
