        VERSE 

        C       G     Am 
We came in this world together 

G                       Am 
Legs wrapped round each other 

   F 
My cheek against my sister's 

        C         G       Am      G    Am 
We were born like tangled vines 


       C       G       Am 
And we lived along the river 

          G                  Am 
Where the black clouds never lingered 

        F         
And the sunlight spread like honey 

           C        G    Am      G    Am 
Through my sister's tiny hand 

          C       G    Am 
But while picking sour apples 

       G           Am 
In the wild waving grasses 

       F                
Sister stumbled in the briar 

        C      G    Am      G    Am 
And was bitten by a snake 



        Chorus 

      G                Am 
Every creature casts a shadow 

          G            C 
Under the sun's golden fingers 

           G                  Am 
And as the sun slips past the waving grass 

     G                   Am 
Some shadows are dragged along 



        VIOLIN SOLO 

C  G  Am  G    Am F    C G Am  G Am 



        VERSE 

   C       G       Am 
So alone I took to drinking 

G                Am 
Bottles of cheap whiskey 

      F 
And I staggered through the backwoods 
  
        C             G         Am     G    Am 
Killing snakes with a sharpened stick 


       C       G         Am 
Oh but still I heard her laughing 

       G           Am 
In the wild waving grasses 

          F                 
Still her tiny hands were splashing 

       C       G         Am      G    Am 
At the river's sparkling shore 


     C       G     Am 
So I took my rusty gas can 

       G        Am 
And an old iron shovel 

      F            
And I set the woods to blaze 

               C     G       Am      G    Am 
And choked the river up with stones 


        Chorus 

      G                Am 
Every creature casts a shadow 

          G            C 
Under the sun's golden fingers 

           G                  Am 
And as the sun slips past the waving grass 

     G                   Am 
Some shadows are dragged along
