I can fe - el di - fference, to day differ ence
All of us, in our tents , fearing god like a mist ress
We lay on the rocks in the su - un watching you and your mama row in
I sat up and blinked when you ap pear - ed, so pale you were nearly clear
Later I stumbled to my be - ed, all lone in the bran - ches
I lay in the dark thinking a bout all of my friends and their cha - nges
And I do not know if yo - ou know just what you have done
You were the sweetest o - o - one I have ever laid my eyes u pon
It's beautiful town with the rain coming down
Blackberry rosemary, jimmy-crack- corn
You've got the F run of the C place now that you're Dm running a Bb round
And may kindness, kindness, kindness bound
The rest of the songs consists of these three sections repeated, until the end:
Sweet Es me, sweet Es me - G - e - e - e
Sweet Es me, sweet Es me - G e - e - e - e
Sweet Es me, Es me - G e - e - e - e
Sweet Es me, sweet Es me - G e - e - e
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
