"Cripple Crow" 2005
Dm
Lazy butterfly napping on me dreamin' of the sky and rolly-pollies
A G
wake-up, wake-up, clouds are comin' clouds are comin'
A G Dm
wake-up wake-up rain's, rains a' fallin' rains a fallin'
Dm
Colours in my eye are staring at me anchor at my side
A G
as sweet as silver pleasure, pleasure don't, don't forget her
A G
lover, lover i won't forget her, i won't forget her
Dm
Brown eyed lullaby singing at me
A G
Come on, come on, try and catch me, try and catch me
A G Dm
Come on, come on, try and catch m, try and catch me
Dm
Cotton old cloud smoke I know he feels it
Rising from an oak because I feel it
A G
He burn, he burn, mesmerizing, mesmerizing
A G Dm
He burn, he burn, hypnotizing, hypnotizing
Dm
Hopeful wise old worm in his temple - Digging in the dirt staying simple
A G
Married, married, to the desert to the desert
A G Dm
Climbing, climbing, up a ladder up a ladder -SOLO/LICK-
Dm
Purple hummingbird in the meadow - Suckling at the flow of its shadow
A G
See the day fit your fist in, fit your fist in
A G Dm
It's never too late, I'd like to think so, I'd like to think so
Dm
Knife stuck in her paw someone help her - Gather sticks and straw and build it shelter
A G
Don't you, don't you, let her die yeah, let her die yeah
A G Dm
Don't let, don't let, let her die yeah, let her die yeah
[Bluesy solo/lick](sounds like a sitar)
