[Verse 1]
Em C Em C Em C Em C
Lazy afternoon strolls make for her howls at the trees
Em C Em C Am
Going home with trouble written in dirt on her knees
D
There’s nowhere else to be
Em C Em
Off into the long grass
C Em C Em C
I want her to drag me away
Em C Em C Am
Every single footpath that I ever try and take
D
She’ll circumnavigate
[Pre-Chorus]
C G
They pass us by and we’re just out of view
Am
Yeah, they don’t have a clue
Fm
They’re in ones they’re in twos
F
They’re in sensible shoes
Fm
They’re in purple cagoules
[Chorus]
Am Fm
She’ll jump in the river
Am Fm
You’ll wish you’re the water
Dm Bbm
And like no one else could
G#m
She does the woods
[Break]
Em C x4
[Verse 2]
Em C Em
Faces made for daylight
C Em C Em C
Ought to be out of the house
Em C Em
You’d do the moon and back twice easy
C Am
Just to kiss half of her mouth
D
She’s what it’s all about
[Pre-Chorus]
C G
They pass us by and we’re just out of view
Am
Yeah, they don’t have a clue
Fm
They’re in ones they’re in twos
F
They’re in sensible shoes
Fm
They’re in purple cagoules
[Chorus]
Am Fm
She’ll jump in the river
Am Fm
You’ll wish you’re the water
Dm Bbm
And like no one else could
G#m
She does the woods
[Break]
Em C x4
[Bridge]
Em C Em C Em C Em C
She turns my back to the earth and shows me that’s where I’m meant to be
Em C Em C Em C Em C
I hear the chirps from the birds as if they heard somebody coming
Em C Em C
I see her lit from behind looking down on me
Em C Em C
In front of a natural tapestry that’s like a
Em C Em C Em C Em C
Spirograph of branches that dance on the breeze
C G Am Fm F Fm F
[Chorus]
Am Fm
She’ll jump in the river
Am Fm
You’ll wish you’re the water
Dm Bbm
And like no one else could
G#m
She does the woods
