Joanna Newsom: Divers - "Same Old Man" chords
Start Jamming...
[Bb] [C] It's the same old way, putting out the watch
Standing in the rain, I'm pretty [Bb] standing in the rain
I
[C] thought New [Bb] York was going [C]
insane
Hey little leaf lying on the ground
Now you're turning slightly black
[Bb] on the tree
[C] Turn the color green [Bb] the way you [C] ought to be
My mind is thin and my body grows weak
[Gm]
And [C] my lips won't form the words I speak
And I'm floating away [E] on a barrel [Bb] of paint
[C] New York City [Bb] won't [C] see me again
It's the same old man, sitting at the mill
Mill wheel turning of its own free will
I'm certainly glad [Bb] to be at home
[C] New York City continues on and on
I'm certainly [Bb] glad to be at home
[C] New York City [Bb] [C] continues on and on
New York City [Bb] [C] continues on and on
New York City [Bb] continues
[Cm] [N]
