Adam Carroll - Rice Birds guitar chord

Haven't been able to find this anywhere so I thought I would throw the chords out there.

Not going to work out the picking for ya because I cant fingerpick anyway, just noodle

it out however ya want to. Its actually C-G-F,in the video he capos first fret and

plays it open.

CAPO 1st fret

(C) (G) (C)

I was thinkin of you when the rice birds flew,

(C) (G) (C)

When the false dawn came with morning dew

(G) (C) (G) (F)

You're a thunderstorm ragin outside my garage,

(C) (G) (C)

You're the white shirt peekin through my camouflage.

I was thinkin of you and I wont forget,

Tail of of the turtle and bayou teche,

I cannot dance but can hang on,

to some sweet memory down in Oberlin

I was thinkin a you at the mardi gras,

Fords and Chevys like I never saw,

I wish you were there to dance with me,

And to hear that Cajun symphony.

I was thinkin a ayou aat the LA bar,

Got so drunk I couldn't drive my car,

I was dreamin about you with my 10 ounce beer,

Dreamin sweet daydreams wishin you were here.

Well I was thinkin a you with the braids in your hair,

It was down in Houston but it coulda been anywhere,

I was dreamin about you with my changin ways,

And I still think about ya in my travelin days.

Well I was thinkin a you where the sunset glows,

Down the Mississippi River where the gulf wind blows,

I was dreamin about you in the Fluer-de-lis,

I was wishin you were next to me.

sorry nothing fancy here, just discovered this guy a few days ago, yet another great Texas songwriter.
