Richard And Linda Thompson - Withered And Died

[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
F
This cruel country has driven me down
G C F G
Teased me and lied, teased me and lied
C F
I've only sad stories to tell to this town
G C
My dreams have withered and died

[Chorus]
F C Dm
Once I was bending the tops of the trees
C Dm Am G
Kind words in my ear, kind faces to see

[Verse 2]
C F
Then I struck up with a boy from the West
G C F G
Played run and hide, played run and hide
C F
Count one to ten and he's gone with the rest
G C
My dreams have withered and died

[Instrumental]
F C Dm C Dm Am G

[Verse 3]
C F
Silver moon sail up and silver moon shine
G C F G
On the waters so wide, waters so wide
C F
Steal from the bed of some good friend of mine
G C
My dreams all withered and died

[Chorus]
F C Dm
If I was a butterfly, lived for a day
C Dm Am G Am G/B
I could be free just blowing away
