The wind blew a path through the fallen leaves
C G D
And there showed a crack in the old oak tree
C G D
The door stood as if it was standing guard
C G D
Of the dozen chipmunks in the backyard

Every house not a home but dare do I roam
C G D
There's a light on the porch here for someone

Now it's hard to remember it any other way
C G C G
When the law acts as though there is nothing to show
C G D
There is compassion and depth in a neighbor

Now if Bartles Jaymes didn't need no first names
