F Am
Tarpaulin sailboats and sports cars are splayed on
Dm Bb
Everyone's plot of suburban green rayon
F Am
This is the stuff that philosophers prey on
F Bb
Dreaming
F Am
She left New York to uncover her feeling
Dm Bb
Deep in the forest she comes to a clearing
F Am
Where spiders and frogs climb down from the ceiling
Bb
She slows down
Gm F
Yeah she slows down
F Am
Well the scene on the sidewalk is grassy green terror
Dm Bb
Everyone smiles as the summer gets fairer
F Bb
She can't shake the skin off this neon unbearable sky
Gm F
And they slow down
Dm F
Yeah they slow down
Bbm Fm
And see the soldiers smoking cigarettes
Bbm Fm
And making bombs and placing bets
Bbm D F
And telling tales of girls who slept beside them at home
F C
F C
F Fm
In the clearing she takes off her skirt and her flip flops
Bbm F
Wades in the water it grazes her knee tops
A D
She floats on her back, looking up at the blue drops of sky
Gm F
And she slows down
Dm F
Yeah she slows down
F Am
Well she falls asleep on the creek and the stillness
Dm Bb
The spiders and frogs and the clearing bear witness
F Am
To words dropped like pearls on the water unnoticed
Dm Bb
Just how deep they go
Dm F
And she slows down
Gm F
Yeah she slows down
Dm F
Yeah she slows down
