Alila?
Alila Diane.
Oh, in Nevada City, California?
[Bm]
[A#]
[C] [N] Where are we going?
[D]
[Em] [Bm]
[D] Check, check, check.
[Em] I'll have you [Bm] know
That if [Em] I had [F#] one, I'd play this song piano
[D] [Em] If I had one of [Bm] those, I'd sit it on my knee and count [D] to
[Em]
One, two, [Bm] three
[D] And if [Em] I had one of [Bm] those other things, you know [D] I'd [B] put it in my [F#m] mouth
[Em] If I had some of [F#m] those other things, oh, I'd put them into [Em] jars on the shelf
But [Em] I'll have you [Bm] know
[B]
[F#m] That if I [Em] had, say, [B] ten or twenty, I'd [D] have a choir of little [Em] children sing [Bm] along
I'd have [D] a choir of [E] little children singing [F#m] along
And I'll have you know
[F#] That
[Bm] [D] if she [Em] had one, [F#] she'd put it [F#m] in a paper bag
[F#m] If she [B] had one, she'd put it in a paper bag, oh
This long [Em]-gone grandma [F#m] would put it in a paper bag, label
[Em] Pieces of string too small to [F#m] use
Pieces [B] of string too small [F#m] to use
But her [Em] leaves are now the [Bm] does
[D] [E] Summer winds did [F#m] blow her hair
But now she's pieces [Em] of string too small [Bm] to use
[Em] Pieces of string too small to [Bm] use
What's left [D] is pieces [Em] of string too small [Bm] to use
Pieces [E] of string too small [F#m] to use
She
[A#]
[N]
was always [D] walking, singing to her footsteps
Dirt ditch paths and pine cones, digging up glass bottles
In spirit, [B] she's drifted [N] to the ocean
All [C#] those years of waiting [F] for the [N] water
She's watching long shadows call in the tide
Oh, she will always love him
Lost up in the mountains
[N]
