G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D
Daisies stand up on their tiptoes
G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D
And clouds stumble over themselves in the sky
G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D
And all the pretty horses come runnin' to her
G C9 Em7
And even the dust devils pray
D Dsus2 D G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D
That they'll catch her eye
Riff 1
I haunt her house from the outside
I watch her bake cornbread and talk on the phone
And the wireless on the inside plays a sad, sweet song
A mute moonlit statue am I
She waltzes alone
Riff 1

Chorus:
Em Bm G Bm
But baby, baby, I could call you baby
Em Bm G Bm
If I weren't so empty in the head and tied up in the tongue
Am Bm C Bm
And baby, baby, I could call you baby
C D
If I weren't so green and dumb
Riff 1 (x2)
The wind ain't stopped blowin' since mornin'
It's got me froze up on the inside
And I could get warm in the bunkhouse
Thaw out on coffee and bread

I need your government warnin'
Like I need a hole in my head
But I won't shoot your coyotes, and I won't burn your weeds
G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D Em Bm G C D
Your paycheck won't fill up this hollow, won't dull all the a - chin'
