A                     G
 Dead leaves and the dirty ground
         C         D    A
when I know youre not around
A                G
 shiny tops and soda pops
        C              D      A
when I hear your lips make a sound
        F              G      A
when I hear your lips make a sound

A                     G
 Thirty notes in the mailbox
      C                D      A
will tell you that Im coming home
A                       G
 and I think Im gonna stick around
        C              D    A
for a while so you're not alone
        F
for a while so you're not alone

A                    G               :
 If you can hear a piano fall        : nessa parte
         F#             F        A   : fazer só os baixos
you can hear me coming down the hall :
A                            G
 if I could just hear your pretty voice
         C              D     A
I dont think I need to see at all
         F              G     A
I dont think I need to see at all
A                 G
 Soft hair and a velvet tongue
           C                 D      A
I want to give you what you give to me
A                         G
 and every breath that is in your lungs
      C           D      A
is a tiny little gift to me
      F           G      A
is a tiny little gift to me

D                               A            G A
  I didnt feel so bad till the sun went down
D
  then I come home
                         F
no one to wrap my arms around
               G
wrap my arms around

A                     G             :
 Well any man with a microphone     : somente os baixos
    F#                F         A   :
can tell you what he loves the most :
A                  G
 and you know why you love at all
           C               D     A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
           F               G     A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
