EmShe, she, she, she Gonly ever -ver
DWalk to to count Acount her steps
EmEighteen teen strides and she Gstops to abide
By the lDaw that she herself has Aset
EmThat eighteen steps is Gone complete set
DAnd before the next nine right and Anine left
EmShe looks up up at the Gblue
DAnd whispers to all of the aAbove
EmDon't let me drown, don't Gbreathe alone
No Dkicks no pines no brokeAn bones
EmNever let me sink
GAlways feel at home
DNo sticks no shanks and no Astones
EmNever leave it too late
GAlways enjoy the taste
Of Dthe great great great grey world Gof hearts
EmAs all dogs everGywhere bark bark bark bark
DIt's worth knowiAng
EmLike all good fruit, thGe balance of life is Din
GThe ripe and ruined
