Dm Am G We found his car by the roadside later that day Fill 2 x1 C Am F G Rose smashed his windows till the glass was all gone C Am F Polly broke the back door and she screamed down the hall Fill 1 x2 C Am F G But no answer sounded but wind flying through C Am F as we tore up the green lawn and torched all the rooms Fill 1 x2 Am Em Did he find a white glove in the pines by the lake? Dm F Why would he leave us, why would he leave us this way? Fill 1 x3 C
