Verse 1 Chords:

I came out from under her warm sheets

Into the brisk late October

If only for one last hope

I wanted my time with you to be over

Verse 2

use verse 1 chords

I’m staring up into the sky

While all the raining is pouring down

I’m reaching out for your help

But evil beings hold me backwards

Chorus 1

All shapes and shadows move in and out

And hover round my bed

Voices arrive and disappear,

I want to talk to them

Darkness disintegrates I’m rising;

I’m rising toward a light

A light leading over hills and meadows

Interlude 1

--- x2 (starting here and onwards, insert

Riff 1 where appropriate)

Verse 3+4: Use Verse 1 chords

I’ve risen up from the dead

With the burning leaves of autumn

If only for one last chance

That all of whom have been defeated

To put on my father’s wool coat

To smell my mother’s fragrances and perfumes

To find my young brothers and sisters

To never leave or let them go

Chorus 2

Use chorus 1 chords

Houses adorned so beautifully

The Marin headlands song

Lost verses well up my eyes and ears

The lone mandolin strums

On Tamalpais warm spring

The many places we

Lay down in sleepy hidden shadows

Interlude 2

----, then ----

Bridge

I see you well and clear, deep in the moonlight dear

Your radiant august eyes, they are the suns that rise

They are the light that blinds,

They end these lost verses

Verse 5+6: Use Verse 1 chords

I came up from under the ocean

Evaporated sea salt water

A mist above the skyline

I haunt the streets of San Francisco

Watch over loved ones and old friends

I see them trough their living room windows

Shaken by fear and worries

I want them to know how I love them so

Chorus

Foghorns would sound in waking

Is it my voice you hear?

Footsteps are moving across the floor

And you know I’m here

The afternoon carries up from the hills and you are well and near

To fall into the light I follow

Interlude 3

Final Bridge:

I feel oh so near, when morning doves appear

And ghosts of April ring, echo the refrain

Soon finding a place, in these lost verses

They fill the foggy day, they hide the hills away

That steal our time, they are the picturesque night

The casting city lights

, then --- x2

On the bay flowing into the ocean glowing
