Capo 1
[D]She came back so far , stepped back from the [G]moment
That she [G/F#]knew she would [Em]fall
[A]Moved into a crowded little room, down a dimly lit [D]hall
Her eyes were a mystery, one moment [G]light then [G/F#]tired and [Em]scared
[A]Said that she was happy now, hoped he wouldn't find her [D]here
She goes out walking late September [G]when the [G/F#]leaves are all [Em]gone
[A]Sometimes she stops and turns around
You know that memory lingers [D]on.
She says I [G]know, I think I under[D]stand
Some people walk pro-[Em]tected, safe from [G]troubles
They'd never under[D]stand, no matter [G]how hard I try
I feel like sinking[D] sand
I wake up in the[Em] night afraid that I [G]might
Slide through your [D]hands
[D]Underneath the twisted trees, underneath the [G]eyes of [G/F#]everyone [Em}
He [A]came back one night screaming out her name
Crying "look what you have[D] done"
We just stood there watching
Wishing there was [G]somewhere we could [G/F#]run away and [Em]hide
It[A] took two men to hold him down and to get him [D]outside
I wish I was a river
A river running [G]free and [G/F#]running [Em]wild
I'd [A]wrap my waves around her
And carry her off, long into the [D]night
She says I [G]know, I think I under[D]stand
Some people walk pro-[Em]tected, safe from [G]troubles
They'd never under[D]stand
No matter [G]how hard I try I feel like sinking[D]sand
I wake up in the [Em]night afraid that I [G]might
Slide through your [D]hands
