Verse
G
The yellow furze stole my heart again today
Am G
The daisies in the long grasses sway
Am G
Before I stepped into his domain
Am G Am
My heart soared and sang with the wind
Verse
G
I stood in by the ditch where the primroses lay
Am G
Thought of my good friend, Jane
Am G
Who has turned her life around for herself, yes, for herself
Am G Am
Despite the shame of it all
Chorus
G
They had to hand it to her, she's done well
Am
So they couldn't complain
G
They waited for the fall
Am
And all the pain to come through
F
With hearts already too broken
Am Em Am
Only to be frozen over in misery
Verse
G
They never said about the baby born in the barn
Am G
Finding her twisted and wound up with their scorn
Am G
The months she spent, many miles, many miles away
Am G Am
Dark sunglasses worn on a winter's day
Verse
G
We had nowhere to turn to but the skies
Am G
We followed a star around the world
Am G
Now we wave and walk on, each bent in our own wind
Am G Am
Trees lean in and listen
Chorus
G
They had to hand it to her, she's done well
Am
So they couldn't complain
G
They waited for the fall
Am
And all the pain to come through
F
With hearts already too broken
Am Em Am
Only to be frozen over in misery
