Am


[Verse 1]
            Am
There's a rooster, a hen
        Em                    G        D
A black dog by my kid in the yard
           Am
And I've tattooed the head
        Em                   G         D
Of the woman I've wed on my arm
   Am
We sit on the lawn
          Em                        G       D
And she winks and she yawns at the sound
           Am                     Em
That the setting sun makes as it lights up the lake
          G       D
And goes down


[Chorus]
        Am                 G
And you ease my troubles with your hands
                                     D
Like the night puts a calm on the valley
            Am            G
Moved my shaking castle from the sand
                                     D
When you gave me your soul for to marry


[Verse 2]
       Am                     Em                     G         D
The cicadas in tune ain't too noisy for you but too fast
         Am
As the night eases in
                       Em            G          D
Like dark wine on our skin and the grass
         Am
Now the moon's high above
           Em                      G         D
You're the woman I've loved for so long
          Am
It's the last goodnight kiss
          Em                          G       D
And these moments I miss when you're gone


[Chorus]
         Am               G
And you ease my troubles with your hands
                                   D
Like the night puts a calm on the valley
          Am              G
Moved my shaking castle from the sand
                                   D
When you gave me your soul for to marry
