Tall Grass Chords

Asus4 A
"Come outside, " she said to me
Asus4 A
As if I knew just what she'd say
Asus4 A
"Come outside, we'll watch tomorrow
G
Pull the curtain on today"
A5
"Come outside into the tall grass
Asus4 A
And the old corn and the shit
Asus4 A
Come outside, oh child Into the wild
G
and weep for it"
Bb                  C                  D
And all along I know I don't know the why
Asus4 A
And it takes me through the meadows
Asus4 A
And I have got a rifle on my arm
Asus4 A
And the rabbit won't stop shaking but the
G
life is gone
Asus4 A
And there is blood upon the clover
Asus4 A
Oh god, his eyes are open wide
Asus4 A
Staring up at me and infinity
G
And the shrinking English sky
Bb                      C                      D
And all along I tell myself I don't know thе why
Bb
And as the idea ossifies
C                       A
I can't bеlieve it's mine
Dm
I make a change
C
He is wordless and silent
            Gm
And he says, "Just close my eyes"
        Dm
I have one eye open to the rain
C
And one pressed to the ground again
Gm
And I don't know why
Bb
And I don't know why
F
And I don't know why
C       Gm
No, they don't know why
        Bb
No, they don't know why
                F                       C
No, they don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know, know
        Gm
Oh, she takes a train to Paris
Bb
For a weekend with a friend
                F
They take you places, trains and summers
        C
At 200 miles an hour
                Gm
That you've never been
Bb
Did I ever say
F
The way your breath
C
Takes mine away?
Gm
As I stare out at the grassland
        Bb
Past the living and the dead
        F
Matter forming and decaying
        C
A perpetual uprising
        Gm
Let there be a revolution
        Bb
And a light to lead us on
        F
Just a ball of souls revolving
        C
Spinning circles 'round the sun
        Gm
For the infinite and ageless
        Bb
For the meaningless and painless
        F
For the times we shook like rabbits,
C
felt like children made us ask this
Gm
Can you see me?
Bb
Can you see me?
F
Oh, can you see me?
Can you see me?
C
Can you see me?
Gm
Hey, can you see me?
Bb
For I am changing
F                                         C
But all the same things just come back to haunt me
Gm                                       Bb
There are trains that can take a girl to Paris
F                                     C
There are planes that could bring you home
Gm                                         Bb
There are some of us get broken when we're children
F                                    C
And you never get it back once that is gone
Gm
And I don't know why
Bb
No, I don't know why
F
No, I don't know why
C
No, I don't know why
