When The Deer Come

G G Am I hold my breath whenever the deer come D Em D G Don’t move the air, don’t wanna scare ‘em C D Whether in twilight, whether in dawn G D Em The stag or the mother and her fawn D G When I breathe again they are gone G Am Wish I were younger, wish I were stronger D Em D G Wish pain would go quicker and love would last longer C D But just when I’m sure nothin’ is true G D Em No one hurts half as much as I do D G The trees move, they’re comin’ through C D G D F C Oh, don’t it make you feel awfully safe and sound D G D Em Yeah, it sure does make me feel like what’s lost could be found C The seeds are in the ground G D C The sun comes up and down D G The deer are all around G Am We hold our breath whenever the deer come D Em D G Winter or spring summer or autumn C D Nothin’ so quiet nothin’ so good G D Em As their eyes at the edge of the wood D G We’d follow if we could C D G D F Oh, let us disappear for a long warm hour G F C Let us dis-a-ppear D G D Em Turn us into moss, turn us into wild flowers G Em D C So they won’t know we’re here D C D G And we can just be near the deer being deer C D G D F G C Oh, don’t it make you feel awfully safe and sound D G D Em It sure does make me feel like what’s lost will be found C The seeds are in the ground G D C The sun comes up and down D Em The deer are all around G D C Though they run away G D C Though they never stay D G They’ll come another day G We hold our breath G We hold our breath
