VERSE:
EmI know I planted those seeds dGown too deep
ThDey'll die and never see the Amsun
My fault for that one Em
EmI was a city boy befGore
No excuses anymDore
I'll try to learn and to keep us Amfed
Shed a tear for the books I shoulda rEmeadG D Am
VERSE:
EmAnd I'd seen all the warning sGigns
On the TV, in the TiDmes
But I had you to hold at nAmight
And so it took me by surpEmrise
EmWe had so many things back tGhen
I had a silver Mont Blanc pDen
And I'd write for hours
About nAmothing
It makes any difference nCow
CHORUS:
ACnd I used to worry what clothes GI had Don
TChe school recitals and the mGanicured lDawns
ACnd I had a laundry-list of pGeople
I could count on if it aDll went wrongC
N.C. Em G D Am
And then the bomb
VERSE:
EmNow I take precautions for my peGace of mind
DI don't know what difference it might Ammake
To hang on any longer
EmBut I cut the tree across the drGive
Spend the daylight hours insDide
Trying to make the place look Amempty
so as no-one comes aroEmund G D Am
VERSE:
EmI thought I saw them again last nGight
Those same distant headlights
DSweeping back and forth acrAmoss
The empty shells of the summer hEmomes
EmAnd if the bastards ever come
GPromise me you'll take the kids and rDun
I may be weak and I may be fAmrail
But I can tEmhrow them off your trCail

I may be weak and I may be frail
Em C
But I can throw them off your trail
