INTRO:   (Capo 5th fret)    C, D, G, C, Bm, D (plus pick/strum back to G)

  G                                C          G
It was as far as I was allowed to go
                       Bm             C            D 
The big rocks down by the deep bay road
  G                      C         G 
You’d be driving from Montreal
            Bm              C        D 
In your big white company car
 G                                           C            G 
I was so excited had to get as close as I could
 G  C    D      G    C          Bm              D
So I walked out into the edge of my world 
 
  G                            C                       G
With every year the world got a little larger
              Bm                C      D 
Past the dam, past the fire tower
 G                                C           G 
And there I’d be just waiting for you
C   D  G        Bm              G 
Lying in the cool green moss
              C               D      G
And my ears were pinned
                 *                 **                     ***                  C
Listening to    the sound     of the leaves           and the wind 
                            D
And the buzz of electricity and time 
   G         D                    Em
 
Howling high up on the power lines
             C                        D
And somewhere way out there 

                        *                   **
A distant sound  ^   to behold  ^
                        ***                 C           G
Of your wheels   ^^   coming down the road 
 
I don’t remember when all this came to pass  
Back when I thought all things would last 
Now it’s your hands I remember best 
Folded gently upon your chest 
Your old rosary around your neck 

 C     D   G  C   Bm              D
Oh dear Mary pray for us sinners 
  C   Bm  G   C  Bm D   C  D7   G
Now and at the hour    of our death
