[Intro]
Bm G Bm G A
[Chorus]
Em
Autumn's ashes, summer's embers
G
On the sidewalk come September
D F#m
And suddenly I can't remember
G Bm
Any lessons learned
Bm
Now that I'm a migrant picker
G
Trouble-minded tin-can kicker

Bm E G

Bm G Bm G Em

Came to him in summer clothing

Came to him because I chose him
Bm G
Came to find his fingers frozen
Bm
And he would not reach for me
Bm
Came to him for his sweet song
G D Bm
Came to him for right or wrong
Bm
Came to find his heart belonged
G Bm
To one who came before me
[Bridge]
Bm F# E G
How suddenly the sweetness died

I couldn't bring it back to life

I couldn't sing it back to life
Em Bm G Bm G F#m
But I tried
