------------------------------------------------------------------------ Passing Afternoon - Iron & Wine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tabbed by: Alex Email: american_classic5@yahoo.com Tuning: Standard, Capo II G D Em C There are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon G D Em D Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon G D Em C And she chose a yard to burn, but the ground remembers her G D Em D Wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms G D Em C There are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days G D Em D Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made G D Em C And she's chosen to believe in the hymns her mother sings G D Em D Sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves G D Em C There are sailing ships that pass all our bodies in the grass G D Em D Springtime calls her children 'till she lets them go at last G D Em C And she's chosen where to be, though she's lost her wedding ring G D Em D Somewhere near her misplaced jar of bougainvillea seeds G D Em C There are things we can't recall, blind as night that finds us all G D Em D Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls G D Em C But my hands remember hers, rolling 'round the shaded ferns G D Em D Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned G D Em C There are names across the sea, only now I do believe G D Em D Sometimes, with the windows closed, she'll sit and think of me G D Em C But she'll mend his tattered clothes and they'll kiss as if they know G D Em D A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone Enjoy =)
