Waxwings

	  		
verse 1 
    A          G             D         A 
The sun on the maples like indelible stain 
               G                D       A 
Happy red pine varmints must be raising cain 
                      G               D         A 
And here out west the blazes sketch a violent domain 
           G                  D     A 
Maybe them waxwings will come back again 
                        G             D              A 
From a lonely burnt out shanty in the morning, I can tell 
           G               D      A 
The fog is lifting off the chaparral 
                   G            D     A 
Where the solitary lion and the toyon dwell 
              G              D        A 
Those channel linings cast a haunting spell 


       D                    A                  C            G 
Like a winter's freeze or a vernal breeze that blows forevermore 
Bb          F                         C 
Friends and neighbors always at your door 
    D               A               C             G 
And just like sandy shorelines that vanish in a storm 
Bb              C              D 
They don't come around here anymore

verse 2 
        A        G               D             A 
Now the annual migrations are as solid as your word 
         G          D        A 
Too many promises becomes absurd 
                       G              D        A 
But my faith may be forever shattered if not burned 
              G               D         A 
Just one more visit from that spectacle bird 


       D                    A                  C            G 
Like a winter's freeze or a vernal breeze that blows forevermore 
Bb          F                         C 
Friends and neighbors always at your door 
    D               A               C             G 
And just like sandy shorelines that vanish in a storm 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore 
Bb              F              C 
They don't come around here anymore
