[Ab]
[Abm]
Stonecutters made the health and [Gb] stones chosen specially [E] for you and I
Who live [Ab] in the inside
The mountaineers got a [Gb] timber pile of mine
In which to take [E] along
Travelling many miles knowing [Abm] they'd get here
When they got here all exhausted
On [Gb] the roof leaks they got started
But [E] now when the rain comes we can be [Abm] thankful
[Gb] When the [E] mountaineers saw that everything's dead
They didn't cry [Abm] until they took off
Don't be looking [Gb] for a change [E] or two
Around [Abm] this place
When they [Gb] get back they'll all [E] make stop with no one [Abm] to stay with
[Gb]
[E] [Dbm]
[Abm] The nutrients could be all one really needs
That's filled with [Gb] hundreds and hundreds of chemicals
That mostly [E] surround you you wish to flee
But it's not like you so listen to [Ab] me, listen to me
And [Abm]
when the morning comes we will step outside
We [Gb] will not find another man inside
We like the newness, [E] the newness of all
That's grown in our gardens, grown [Abm] for so long
Whenever I was a child I wondered what if my name had [Gb] changed
Into something more productive like
Roscoe been [E] born in 1891
Waiting with my Aunt [Abm] Roseline
Don't be looking [Gb] for a change or [E] two
Around [Abm] this place
When they get [Gb] back they'll all make [E] stop with no one [Abm] to stay with

1891
They moved around their [Gb] forest
They made their house from [E] cedar
They made their house [Abm] from stone
But they're a little like [Gb] me
A little like [E] me
We have all [Abm] we need
Don't be looking [Gb] for a change or [E] two
Around [Abm] this place
[Gb] This place
This [B] place
[Abm]
When they [Gb] get back they'll all [Abm] make stop with no one to stay with
When [Gb] they get back they'll all [E] make stop with no one to stay with
