Chords
This is a more correct version I think than the other one, the previous version had way
too many chord changes that werereally just little runs played between the main chords
listed here.
[Intro]
Am
C G Am We came in this world together G Am Legs wrapped 'round each other F My cheek against my sister's C G Am We were born like tangled vine C G Am We lived along the river G Am Where the black clouds never lingered F The sunlight spread like honey C G Am Through my sister's tiny hands C G Am But while picking sour apples G Am In the wild waving grasses F Sister stumbled in the brier C G Am And was bitten by a snake
[Bridge]
F Am
[Chorus]
G Am Every creature casts a shadow G C Under the sun's golden finger G Am But when the sun sinks past the waving grass G Am Some shadows are dragged along C G Am Alone, I took to drinking G Am Bottles of cheap whiskey F And staggering through the back woods C G Am Killing snakes with a sharpened stick C G Am But still I heard her laughing G Am In the wild waving grasses F Still her tiny hands went splashing C G Am At the river's sparkling shore C G Am So I took my rusty gas can G Am And an old iron shovel F I set the woods to burning C G Am And choked the river up with stones
[Bridge]
F Am
[Chorus]
G Am Every creature casts a shadow G C Under the sun's golden finger G Am But when the sun sinks past the waving grass G Am Some shadows are dragged along
