VERSE: 
------ 
     A 
Blue morning, Blue morning 
           G 
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone 
A 
Curiosity, Kitten,  
                G 
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own 
        A 
You can look outside your window 
   G 
He doesn't have to know 
       A 
We can talk awhile, baby 
       G 
We can take it nice and slow 
 
 
CHORUS: 
------- 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream 
 
 
VERSE: 
------ 
         A 
Are you happy when you're sleeping? 
         G 
Does he keep you safe and warm? 
         A 
Does he tell you when you're sorry? 
         G 
Does he tell you when you're wrong? 
            A 
I've been watching you for hours 
            G 
It's been years since we were born 
             A 
We were perfect when we started 
           G 
I've been wondering where we've gone 
 
 
CHORUS: 
------- 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream 
 
 
BRIDGE: 
------- 
   A                              G 
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow 
          A                                      G 
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows 
        A                             G 
One for sorrow Two for joy, Three for girls and four for boys 
         A                                   G 
Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told 
           A 
There's a bird that nests inside you 
          G 
Sleeping underneath your skin 
             A 
When you open up your wings to speak 
   G 
I wish you'd let me in 
 
 
CHORUS: 
------- 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame 
         D              Dsus2         G         Gmaj7 
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream 
 
 
 
Open up your eyes 
You can see the flames flames flames of your wasted life 
You should be ashamed 
You don't want to waste your life baby 
You don't want to waste your life now darling 
You don't want to waste your life baby 
You don't want to waste your life now darling 
You don't want to waste your life now babe 
I said you don't want to waste your life now darling 
You don't want to waste your life now baby 
You don't want to waste your life now darling 
Change, change, change 
 
D                    G 
Change, change, change 
D                    G 
Change, change, change 
 
D 
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine 
G 
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
