Eb Cm Ab
[Verse 1]
Eb Eb
Sunday morning, skeleton tree
Cm Ab
Oh, nothing is for free
Eb Eb
In the window, a candle
Cm Ab
Well, maybe you can see
Eb Db
Fallen leaves thrown across the sky
Cm Bb
A jittery TV
Eb Eb
Glowing white like fire
Cm Ab
Nothing is for free
Eb Eb
I called out, I called out
Cm Ab
Right across the sea
Eb Eb
But the echo comes back empty
Cm Ab
And nothing is for free
[Instrumental]

Eb Eb Cm Ab
[Verse 2]
Eb Eb
Sunday morning, skeleton tree

Pressed against the sky
Eb Eb
The jittery TV

Glowing white like fire

And I called out, I called out
Cm Bb
Right across the sea
Eb Eb
I called out, I called out
Cm Ab
That nothing is for free

And it's al----right now
Eb Eb Cm Ab
And it's al----right now
