Song structure and lyrics:


Intro: [play Intro/Verse 1 tab x2]


Verse 1: [use Intro/Verse 1 tab through-out]
Tell me and take your time
Set free this soul of mine
Freeze frame this sedate moment
Lie me in your quiet ground


Verse 2: [use Verse 2 tab through-out]
I understand your
Tired eyes for these
Tired homes and tired trees
I see the pain in those brown eyes
Fires burn in autumn skies
