Intro: Cm

Cm                          Fm 
Lay your head where my heart used to be 
G                    Cm 
Hold the earth above me 
Ab 
Lay down in the green grass 
G                 Cm 
Remember when you loved me 

             Fm 
Come closer don't be shy 
G                     Cm 
Stand beneath a rainy sky 
Ab 
The moon is over the rise 
G                Cm 
Think of me as a train goes by 

             Fm 
Clear the thistles and brambles 
G                Cm 
Whistle 'Didn't He Ramble' 
Ab 
Now there's a bubble of me 
G              Cm 
And it's floating in thee 

Fm           Bb 
Stand in the shade of me 
Eb 
Things are now made of me 
Ab 
The weather vane will say 
G 
It smells like rain today 

                          Fm 
God took the stars and he tossed 'em 
G                             Cm 
Can't tell the birds from the blossoms 
Ab 
You'll never be free of me 
G            Cm 
He'll make a tree from me 

               Fm 
Don't say good bye to me 
G            Cm 
Describe the sky to me 
Ab                    G 
And if the sky falls, mark my words 
Cm 
We'll catch mocking birds 

( Fm  G  Cm  Ab  Ab  G  Cm ) 

                      Fm 
Lay your head where my heart used to be

Hold the earth above me 
Ab 
Lay down in the green grass 
G                 Cm         Cm 
Remember when you loved me
