G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D Daisies stand up on their tiptoes G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D And clouds stumble over themselves in the sky G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D And all the pretty horses come runnin' to her G C9 Em7 And even the dust devils pray D Dsus2 D G C9 Em7 D Dsus2 D That they'll catch her eye Riff 1 I haunt her house from the outside I watch her bake cornbread and talk on the phone And the wireless on the inside plays a sad, sweet song A mute moonlit statue am I She waltzes alone Riff 1

Chorus

Em Bm G Bm But baby, baby, I could call you baby Em Bm G Bm If I weren't so empty in the head and tied up in the tongue Am Bm C Bm And baby, baby, I could call you baby C D If I weren't so green and dumb Riff 1 (2x) The wind ain't stopped blowin' since mornin' It's got me froze up on the inside And I could get warm in the bunkhouse Thaw out on coffee and bread
