Spring Cleaning(Chords)

	        

C           G           Am 
Amy's got a baby in her stomach 
    C                G         Am 
She took my hand and I felt it kick 
      C          G    
She's crying and glowing 
      C                G 
She's three months and showing 
       C             G          Am 
Seeing her now makes me want to live 
       C             G          Am 
Seeing her now makes me want to live 


        C           G     Am 
But her mans got an angry mouth 
        C          G      Am 
He once told me to rot in hell 
     C          G 
He's poisonous, reasonless 
C          G 
Demons and Jesus 
   C            G          Am 
If he died it'd be just as well 
   C            G          Am 
If he died it'd be just as well 



       C         G            Am 
So I'm having it out with the rain 
   C         G           Am 
It argues so long and so loud 
         C           G 
It keeps tappin? and talkin? 
      C          G 
We're walking forever 
   C      G          Am 
On 1st Avenue Headed South 
   C      G          Am 
On 1st Avenue Headed South 


F                      G     
And all the traffic lights blur 
C                Am 
Into a bright bouquet 
F            G                  C 
My heart is in mothballs...it's been 
        E 
Packed away 
    F       G              Am    C 
But I can't get to it, no way 
        F                G          C 
Til the birds return for spring cleaning 


C  G  Am 
C  G  Am 
C  G 
C  G 
C  G  Am 
C  G  C 


F                  G 
All the traffic lights blur 
C                 Am 
Into a bright bouquet 
F           G             C 
I wish I could turn...and just 
      E 
Walk away 
    F       G           Am      C 
But I can't do it, no way 
        F                G                 C 
Til the birds return for spring ... cleaning.
