[Em]Looking out a[D/F#]cross suburban [Csus4]yards to the c[G]onstruct of our
days through the [D/F#]thinning of the trees.
How [Em]come I only [D/F#]build a house of [Csus4]cards?
That gets [G]blown to pieces by the [D/F#]fall's first fickle breeze.
[Am7]When I feel that [Bm7]stirring, the [C]illicit kiss.[D]
That's just the [Am7]cool tongue of the [Bm7]devil with a [C]sucker in
his [D]midst.
(Chorus:)
[G]One day [D/F#]I'll change [Em]you'll be the [Am7]first one that I [C]call.[D]
I [G]owe you an a[D/F#]pology [Em]too many [Am7]thanks and that's not [C]all.[D]
'Cause I've been [Csus4]running long bef[D]ore I learned to c[G]rawl.
My [Em]calendar lies [D/F#]crumbled laid to [Csus4]waste.
It's been [G]scrawled on, thumbed through and [D/F#]changed.
[Em]Will this be the [D/F#]measure of my [Csus4]days?
[G]Dinners and appointments and [D/F#]deadlines I can't make.
And [Am7]when I start to [Bm7]see it making [C]sense for me.[D]
That's just [Am7]hope [Bm7]springing e[C]ternally.[D]
(Chorus)
Outside the [C]summer's gone for [G]good.
Dying im[F]patiens stacked up [C]wood.
My friends will get together to [G]cook.
To talk about what's [D]happened to take a second [C]look.[D]
The [Em]master loves the [D/F#]servant who blind [Csus4]heeds him.
The [G]husband the obedient [D/F#]wife.
The [Em]snake will always [D/F#]bite the hand that [Csus4]feeds him.
[G]Even if you love him even [D/F#]if you save his life.
