Dead Man's Hearse

living between spring and winter (c d g g)
muddy water trickles round (c d g g)
bayou blues coming over me (c d g em)
stuck inside a careful song (c d g g)

a billion verses but no chorus
taxes are the theme
slow and steady and monotonous
the times ahead give me a gleam

it’s not spring no it’s not summer (g c g g)
the colds still pushing through (g c d d)
and i’m stuck inside my restless mind (g c em c)
stuck inside these bayou blues (em d/c g g)

this time of year drags with it winter
and all our stone cold heart’s resolve
time to let go of bad company
time to split ways with our faults

stepping forward into spring
flowers blooming ain’t a thing
less it rains and washes all away
less it rains and summer brings

chorus

seasons come and seasons go
winter springs and summer falls
we do our best to make these memories
worth something to recall
