Verse 2
C
I've sat and watched the woodpiles
E
Grow through the summer

Now I'm sitting,

smelling summer burn through the fall

Winter's coming on, days getting dreary

And I'm thinking this is the season
E
That I leave you all

F
I've heard a man in crisis
E
Falls back on what he knows best,

A murderer to murder
E
A thief to theft
F
And I don't want you to think
That this is some kind of
E
F
deathbed confession
But run is what I did when put to

Verse 4
C
My first recollection is a day
E
C
in December
E
C
747 tracing lines through the sky
Like some old gypsy curse
E
Silently preying upon
C
the dreams of those
E
Who jealously watch life pass by
Verse 5
C
I've sat and watched my troubles
E
Pile through the summer
C
Now I'm sitting,
hearing my youngest cry
E
C
Down the hall
E
Winter's coming on, days getting dreary
C
And I'm thinking this is the season
E
That I leave you all
Verse 6
F
I've heard that the son
must bear
E
The burdens of the father
F
But it's the daughter that is left
E
To clean up the mess
F
And I don't want you to think
E
F
That I'm asking for absolution,
But run is what I did when put to
