Am chordAm G chordG
In a sweater poorly knit, and an unsuspecting smile
G chordG Am chordAm
Little Moses drifts downstream in the Nile
Am chordAm G chordG
A fumbling reply -- an awkward, rigid laugh
G chordG Am chordAm
I'm carried helpless by my floating basket raft
Am chordAm G chordG
Your flavor in my mind swings back and forth between
G chordG (lightly) Am chordAm
sweeter than any wine, and bitter as mustard green
Am chordAm G chordG
Light and dark as honeydew and pumpernickle bread
G chordG C chordC
The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead

C chordC Em chordEm x 4

As you plow some other field and try and forget my name,
see what harvest yields, and, supposing I'd do the same
I planted rows of peas, but by the first week of july -
they should have come up to my knees but they were maybe ankle high

Take the fingers from your flute to weave your colored yarns,
and boil down your fruit to preserves in mason jars
But now books are overdue and the goats are underfed...
the trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead

C chordC Em chordEm x 4

C chordC Em chordEm
AH! x4


You're C chordC door-without-C chordC-key, C chordC field-without-C chordC-fence
You made a holy fool of me, and I've thanked you ever since
If she comes circling back, we'll end where we'd begun
Like two pennies on the train track the train crushed into one

Or if I'm a crown without a king, if I'm a broken, open seed
If I come without a thing, I come with all I need
No boat out in the blue, no place to rest your head
The trap I set for you seems to have caught my leg instead

C chordC Em chordEm
AH! x8

C chordC Em chordEm
I do not exist x3 C chordC Em chordEm x3

C chordC Em chordEm
I do not exist
C chordC Em chordEm
only YOU exist
C chordC Em chordEm
I do not exist

C chordC Em chordEm
I do not exist x3 C chordC Em chordEm x3

Em chordEm over and over until end.
