AmTwo flat Bm#5tires on the CModel FT
CTwo birds fighting for a bGug
Faded squares like snowy TV screens
Where your photographs were hung
Keep Old Glory folded on a shelf
In a cabinet full of guns
Sell that engine block to someone else
Maybe they can make it run
How’d that calf get out beyond the fence?
How’d that hole get in your jeans?
Movie show was once but 20 cents
That mud there was once a stream
(Chorus Slide Guitar)

CThe moon is hFigh
Your nose is bCurned
Your dog is goGne
CYour mouth is drFy
The milk is turCned
But Barbara’s hGome
(Repeat Intro)
AmHand in Bm#5hand you watch the sCun go dFown
CColored lullaby of GGod
Barbara wears her mother’s old nightgown
Sleeping with the nightlight on
White sheet blowing on a short clothesline
New tree bending to the breeze
This clock’s beautiful but can’t keep time
What’s that scar on both your knees?
CThe moon is hFigh
Your nose is bCurned
Your dog is goGne
CYour mouth is drFy
The milk is turCned
But Barbara’s hGome
(Outro -- Sam plays each of these for 4 beats)
