Only thing I didn't include is over top of "distant stations" he does a quick A chord in between the
G and Bm chords.
D G I found an old rock D G In the dry dirt outside G A D The door of my motel room D G It was a triangle with soft rounded edges D G And a split down the middle of one corner G A It was darker than english moss D G Green like the soft frill's of a peacock's plume G A I waited for you D G But I never told you where I was E A It was you who taught me how D Bm To write these kinds of equations G A I waited on the steps for you D G And I hid in the bushes whenever a car pulled into the parking lot E A Bm G You taught me how to listen to these distant stations Bm G Distant stations
Bm G A D
D G I saw the sky break D G I threw a rock at a crow who was playing In the mulches and rose bushes by the motel D A D office. Missed him by a good yard or two D G I sang old songs from nowhere D G Los Angeles, Albuquerque G A Said a small prayer for the poor and the naked and the hungry D G And I prayed real hard for you G A I waited for you D G But I never told you where I was E A It was you who taught me how D Bm To write this kind of equation G A I waited on the steps for you D G And I hid in the bushes whenever I saw a car pulled into the parking lot E A Bm G You taught me how to listen to these distant stations Bm G Distant stations
