In sun and in showers,

You wear yourself so steadily,
You're ready for a fight

But in hell and high water

I don't know the rules of this game,
E Bm
And I don't think I want to play.

And if I come back, I won't stay
(MINI SOLO) Bm, Em, Bm

I burned all your letters
Bm
I buried all your stones
Em
The curses and the raptures,
Bm
I kept them for my own

Oh say, how 'bout this instead?
Em Bm
Come by with some flowers and stay 'til they're dead
F#m E Bm
Stay 'til they're dead.
