I have been playing this on a tenor drop G G uke, 
but it doesn't really matter. For the Bbadd9 Bbadd9,
just play a Bb Bb, add a C C on the A A string OR just drop the D D
that you normally play on the C C string.

Verse: F F Am Am Bb9 Bb9 F F C C
Chorus: Bb9 Bb9 F F Bb9 Bb9 C C


Intro:
F F Am Am Bb9 Bb9 F F C C


Verse 1:
F F
In our days we will live

Am Am
Like our ghosts will live

Bb9 Bb9 F F
Pitching glass at the cornfield crows

C C
And folding clothes

Verse 2:
F F
Like stubborn boys across the road
Am Am
We'll keep everything:
Bb9 Bb9 F F
Grandma's gun and the black bear claw
C C
That took her dog

Verse 3:
F F
When sister Laurie says, "Amen"
Am Am
We won't hear anything:
Bb9 Bb9 F F
The ten-car trains will take that word
C C
That fledgling bird

Verse 4:
F F
And the fallen house across the way
Am Am
It'll keep everything:

Bb9 Bb9
The baby's breath
F F C C
Our bravery wasted and our shame


Chorus:

Bb9 Bb9 F F
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Bb9 Bb9 C C
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
Bb9 Bb9 F F
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Bb9 Bb9 C C
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Verse 5

In our days we will say
What our ghosts will say:
We gave the world what it saw fit
And what'd we get?

Verse 6

Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
We'll see everything:
In the tender shade of the autumn leaves
And the buzzard's wing

Chorus

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Our tender bellies are wound around in baling wire
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Then Sam plays the verse chords once more and ends on an F F.
