Patty Griffin - Making Pies
INTRO: Am F Am F Am
It's not far, I can walk
F
Down the block to Table Talk
C G
Close my eyes, make the pies all day
Am
Plastic cap on my hair
F
I used to mind, now I don't care
C G
I used to mind, now I don't care 'cause I'm gray
F C
Did I show you this picture of my nephew?
F C
Taken at his big birthday surprise
F C
At my sister's house last Sunday
G
This is Monday and we're making pies
Dm F C G F
I'm making pies, making pies, I-hi hi
Am
Thursday nights I go and type
F
Down the church with father Mike
C G
It gets me out and he ain't hard to like at all
Am
Jesus stares at me in my chair with his
F
Big blue eyes and his honey brown hair and he's
C G
Looking at me way up there on the wall
F C
Did I show you this picture of my sweetheart?
F C
Taken of us before the war
F C
Of the Greek and his Italian girl
G
One Sunday at the shore
F C
We tied our ribbons to the fire escape
G F
They were taken by the birds
C
Who flew home to the country
G F
As the bombs rained on the world
Am
5 a.m. here I am
F
Walking the block to Table Talk
C G
You could cry or die or just make pies all day
Dm F
I'm making pies, making pies
Dm F C G F C G Am G F Am
I'm making pies, making pies
