VERSE
(Same strumming as Guitar 2 in the intro for about the 1st half of the song)
G
I saw your daughter yesterday
A Bm
as I was idle on the porch
A G
she slept-walked from your house down the walkway
A Bm
as though she'd done it all before
A G
and the moon was out
Interlude:
A Bm A G A Bm A G
and in her gown beside the riverbed
A Bm
she got down on her knees
A G
and wrapped her long hair up in vines, and leaves, and branches
A Bm
and with the wind beneath her feet
A
oh, she waltzed with the dead

because it sounds cool if you can play it right, but it's not really necessary)

I'll watch over her

as though she were mine
