Window Song

Tom: D

D                                 C
All the windows are playing their game

                              D
Where I won't see outside again

                           C
Til I write all the fog away

                               D
I'm putting words in their place

                               C
Between me and the window's pane

                         D
From my inarticulate brain

                           C
But all of the fog is erased

                                  Am  C  G
When I write all the words that I never said

Am
To you


D                           C
Now the impulse won't go away

                                   C
"Distracted by something?" you'd say

                           D
Cause you don't see anything

                               C
It's just between windows and me

                      D
Wait til it rains again


                                 Am  C  G
And I write all the words that I never said

Am
To you


D        C                 Am
Will you try to read these lines?

D        C             Am
Focus hard and give it time

D       C         Am
Who you are in my life

D        C         Am
Reads as the water washes


Am           C                G
Now the dirt on the window is showing

Am            C               G
I should have drawn something instead

Am              C         G
The dirt on the window is showing

Am             C               G
I should never have written my head

Am                  C              Am  C    G
I should never have written what I never said

Am
To you
