[Intro]
Em Am Bm7 Em
[Verse 1]
Em Guard my bed Am While the rain turns the ditches to mirrors Bm Buy a vase of carnations from central Ohio Em Where the looking machine can't hear us Em Deep in the night, we dream of positions Am There's a line for the phone in the hall Bm And in the cold places where Spanish is spoken Em Most wars end in the fall
[Chorus]
C You never know G Bm7 Em When your pet will go G Em Pet politics G Em Pet politics G Em Pet politics G Em Pet politics
[Verse 2]
Em Still wearin' last night's mascara Am Bm Now that her pet was gone for sure
She was shiverin' so hard
Em It looked like there were two of her Em I could see through the sleeve on her blouse Am Bm The plans of her architect lover
A tattoo of a boarded-up house
Em
And ink door that belonged to another[Chorus]
C When the rain hits you G Bm7 Em It hits you slow G Em Stitch after stitch G Em Stitch after stitch G Em Stitch after stitch G Em Stitch after stitch
[Verse 3]
Em Adam was not the first man Am Though the Bible tells us so Bm There was one created before him Em Whose name we do not know
He also lived in the garden
Am Bm But he had no mouth or eyes
One day, Adam came to kill him
Em
And he died beneath these skies[Chorus/Outro]
C G Bm7 Em I find it so amazing how G Em I go where I'm led G Em I go where I'm led G Em I go where I'm led G Em I go where I'm led C I suspect we could be G Bm7 Em Losing now G Em Please guard my bed G Em Please guard my bed G Em Please guard my bed G Em Please guard my bed
