Intro: Em 


I didn't want to burn like this, so close to the bone 
   C                             D 
No muscle left to carry it, this black bag of stones 
       C          D 
It's a black bag  


N.C.        Em 
Through the August heat, the autumn rain and winter's face of blue 
      C                                   D 
These seasons keep their spinning up, but there's no sign of you 
         C        D 
There is no sign  

C D And so I walk this verdant mile G G/F# C Of memory with you D The gentle arms of Eden Em D C D And the mountain get me through___
Em Well, Richard says the whippoorwill, taught him how to go C D I tell him death is just a dream, but I don't really know Em It's everything and nothing when the spirit cracks the sky C D But flowers fold and go to seed and no one questions why C D Nobody, oh no
C D And so I walk this verdant mile G G/F# C Of memory with you D The gentle arms of Eden Em D C D And the raven get me through___
Instrumental: G D G C D Em I miss you like I love the sound of blackbirds in the trees C D I sit alone and wish that maybe one of you would visit me Em But no matter how much seed I hang, what prayer I call out C D I cannot bring that bird in from the field or make an angel C D Come around
C D And so I walk this verdant mile G G/F# C Of memory with you D The gentle arms of Eden Em D C And the mountain get me through___
D And so I walk this verdant mile G G/F# C Of memory with you D The gentle arms of Eden Em D C D C D G-D-G-D-Em And the mountain get me through______
