The Place Lives

C
Watching the light change
Am
I see the place lives.
C
I've stayed here long enough
G                         Am
moss has started to grow.
          Bm               C
But still, wind sweeping clear

the brief collection assembled,
Bm               Bm Am Gm E
the silt I clutch.

C Am C G

Am
Looking east in the spring
          Bm
through ashes and fog
         C          C        C
white permanent... snow... shines.
