The Drying of the Lawns The Tallest Man on Earth
Capo 6
Dm/F G x2
[C] [Dm7-5]
[Am] [Am/G] [F] [Gsus4] [C]
She [C]said I cannot tell you why, she [Dm7-5]said I'm in a rush
There are [Am]softer [Am/G]dreams for [F]you to think a[Gsus4]bout now lo[C]ve
T[C]hings that you have seen this night that r[Dm7-5]un by that the river's flow
I can [Am]use you [Am/G]if you're [F]in the flame, I'm a [Gsus4]growin' [C]old
And no [Em]this is not the [F]summer [C]dream she sa[Am]id
It's just the [C]drying of the [Am]lawns I want to [F]leave[Gsus4] out th[C]ere
Well I've said I've [C]sailed the frozen corners of the [Dm7-5]dark Atlantic Sea
And I d[Am]rifted[Am/G] on the w[F]aves and the [Gsus4]mirage bene[C]ath
And [C]never have I felt such numb and [Dm7-5]pointless searchin' true
As when I se[Am]t my e[Am/G]yes and tor[F]ched the plans on th[Gsus4]e mark of y[C]ou
And no [Em]this is not the [F]summer [C]dream she sa[Am]id
It's just the [C]drying of the [Am]lawns I want to [F]leave[Gsus4] out th[C]ere
She said you [C]follow me like sheep that think this [Dm7-5]king could do some harm
But I [Am]tell you [Am/G]boy I'm [F]frightened still with a [Gsus4]sister's [C]heart
I [C]set my eyes upon the shore [Dm7-5]whenever you wake up
I'm [Am]leavin' [Am/G]because you [F]don't feel what you're [Gsus4]dreamin' [C]of
And no [Em]this is not the [F]summer [C]dream she sa[Am]id
It's just the [C]drying of the [Am]lawns I want to [F]leave[Gsus4] out th[C]ere
But I will [C]stand down in the hallway with no [Dm7-5]thought to leave the [Bm7-5]set
Of a [Am]movie [Am/G]I will [F]sure as hell not [Gsus4]end just [C]yet
If [C]evenings are for romance then this [Dm7-5]mornin' is for us
It will [Am]never [Am/G]end and [F]our last dream will [Gsus4]leave this [C]house
And no [Em]this is not the [F]summer [C]dream I [Em]said
It's just the [C]drying[G/B] of the [Am]lawns that [G]want to [F]leave us [C]here
Oh it's the [C]drying [G/B]of the [Am]lawns that [G]want to [F]leave us [C]here
