The Days Of Sand And Shovels chords by Nat Stuckey
Verse 1
Eb
Edim
Bb
Fm
Eb
When I no ticed her
Edim
the first time I was outside
Fm
Eb
Db
running barefoot in the rain
Fm
Bb
She lived in the house next door,
Eb
nose pressed against the window pane
Edim
When I looked at her, she smiled and showed
E
Fm
Db
a place where two teeth used to be
Bb
And I heard her ask her mom
if she could come outside
Eb
and play with me
Soon the days of sand and shovels
Edim
Fm
Db
gave way to the mysteries of life
Bbm
Bb
Then I no ticed she had changed
Eb
and I looked at her through different eyes
We became as one in new love
Edim
Fm
Db
without beginning or an end
Fm
Bb
Every day I lived with her
Eb
was like a new day dawning once again
Fm
And I've loved her since then
Her brow was surely temple
Db
So the top was still a nickel
Gb
Candles on her fingertips
Bbsus4
Fm
Bb
Milk was circled on her lips
Eb
After many years our
Edim
love grew silent
Fm
Eb
Db
And at night I heard her cry
Bb
When she left me in the fall
Eb
I knew that it would be our last goodbye
I was man enough to give her
Edim
Fm
Db
everything she needed for a while
Ab
Bb
In searching for a perfect love,
I found that I could not give
Eb
her a good child
Now she lives a quiet life,
Edim
Fm
Eb
Db
lives the mother of a little girl
C
Bb
Every time I pass her house,
my thoughts go back into
Eb
a different world
Because I see her little girl,
Edim
nose is pressed against
Fm
Db
the window pane
Edim
Bb
She thinks I'm a lonely man,
Eb
wants to come inside out of the rain
Fm
And I've loved her since every
dollar surely trembled
Db
So the pot was still a nickel
Gb
And the stone, her fingertip
Bbsus4
Bb
Look, was circled on her lips
G#m
Every dollar surely trembled
E
So the pot was still a nickel
A
E
And the song has been
A
the death of me
C#sus4
Db
Look what's circled on her deathbed
