A                                G
Dead leaves and the dirty ground
            C                  D    A
when I know you're not around
A                       G
shiny tops and soda pops
            C                     D          A
when I hear your lips make a sound
            F                     G          A
when I hear your lips make a sound

A                             G
Thirty notes in the mailbox
        C                      D        A
will tell you that I'm coming home
A                                G
and I think I'm gonna stick around

for a while so you're not alone

[Verse]
A5                       G5
If you can hear a piano fall
              F#5                     F5          A5
you can hear me coming down the hall
A                                G
If I can just hear your pretty voice
            C                     D        A
I don't think I need to see at all
         F                      G        A
don't think I need to see at all
A                        G
Soft hair and a velvet tongue
              C                            D        A
I wanna give you what you give to me
A                                    G
and every breath that is in your lungs
      C              D        A
is a tiny little gift to me
      F              G         A
is a tiny little gift to me

[Chorus]
D                                      A                    G A
I didn't feel so bad 'til the sun went down
D
then I come home
                                        F
no one to wrap my arms around
                         G
wrap my arms around

[Verse]
A5                             G5
Well any man with a microphone
      F#5                      F5           A5
can tell you what he loves the most
A                                    G
And you know why you love at all
               C                    D      A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
               F                    G      A
if you're thinking of the holy ghost

[Instrumental]
