Standard Tuning
Capo 3rd fret
[Verse I]
D A G
Do you still sing of the mountain bed we made of limbs and leaves?
D A
Do you still sigh there near the sky where the holly berry bleeds?
Bm G
You laughed as I covered you over with leaves
Em G
Face, breast, hips and thighs
D C Em G D
You smiled when I said the leaves were just the color of your eyes
D A G
Rosin smells and turpentine smells from eucalyptus and pine
D A
Bitter tastes of twigs we chewed where tangled woodbines twine
Bm G
Trees held us in on all four sides
Em G
so thick we could not see
D C Em G D
I could not see any wrong in you, and you saw none in me
D A G
Your arm was brown against the ground, your cheeks part of the sky
D A
Your fingers played with grassy moss, as limber you did lie
Bm G
Your stomach moved beneath your shirt
Em G
and your knees were in the air
D C Em G D
Your feet played games with mountain roots as you lay thinking there
D A G
Below us the trees grew clumps of trees raised families of trees, and they
D A
As proud as we tossed their heads in the wind and flung good seeds away
Bm G
The sun was hot and the sun was bright
Em G
down in the valley below
D C Em G D
Where people starved and hungry for life so empty come and go
D A G
There in the shade and hid from the sun we free'd our minds and learned
D A
Our greatest reason for being here, our bodies moved and burned
Bm G
There on our mountain bed of leaves
Em G
we learned life's reason why
D C Em G D
People laugh and love and dream, they fight and they hate to die
D A G
The smell of your hair I know is still there, if most of our leaves are blown
D A
Our words still ring in the brush and the trees where singing seeds are sown
Bm G
Your shape and form is dim, but plain
Em G
there on our mountain bed
D C Em G D
I see my life was brightest where you laughed and laid your head
D A G
I learned the reason why man must work and how to dream big dreams
D A
To conquer time and space and fight the rivers and the seas
Bm G
I stand here filled with my emptiness now
Em G
and look at city and land
D C Em G D
I know why farms and cities are built by hot warm nervous hands
D A G
I've crossed many states just to stand here now, my face all hot with tears
D A
I've crossed city and valley, desert and stream to bring my body here
Bm G
My history and future blaze bright in me
Em G
and all my joy and pain
D C Em G D
Go through my head on our mountain bed where I smell your hair again
D A G
All this day long I linger here and on in through the night
D A
My greeds, my joys, my cravings, hopes, my dreams inside me fight
Bm G
My loneliness healed, my emptiness filled
Em G
I walk above all pain
D C Em G D
Back to the breast of my woman and child to scatter my seeds again...
