Rosanne Cash ? September When It Comes
To play the song in the original key, tune your guitar 1/2 step down.
Intro: Em
There's a c[Em]ross above the b[C]aby's b[G]ed,
A S[D]aviour in her [Em]dreams.
[C] But she was not d[G]elivered t[Em]hen,
And the b[D]aby became [Em]me.
There's a l[Em]ight inside the d[C]arkened ro[G]om,
A f[D]ootstep on the st[Em]airs.
[C] A door that I for[G]ever cl[Em]ose,
To l[D]eave those memories t[Em]here.
[C] So when the shadows l[Am]ink them,
[C] Into an evening s[Am]un.
Well first th[Em]ere's summer, then I'll [C]let you [G]in.
Sep[D]tember when it c[Em]omes.
I plan [Em]to crawl outsi[C]de these w[G]alls,
Cl[D]ose my eyes and [Em]see.
[C] And fall into the h[G]eart and [Em]arms,
Of th[D]ose who wait for [Em]me.
I cann[Em]ot move a m[C]ountain n[G]ow;
I c[D]an no longer r[Em]un.
[C] I cannot be who [G]I was th[Em]en:
In a w[D]ay, I never [Em]was.
[C] I watch the clouds go sa[Am]iling;
[C] I watch the clock and [Am]sun.
Oh, I w[Em]atch myself, dep[C]ending o[G]n,
Sept[D]ember when it c[Em]omes.
[C] So when the shadows l[Am]ink them,
[C] And burn away the cl[Am]ouds.
They will [Em]fly me, like an[C] angel,
[G]To a pl[D]ace where I can r[Em]est.
When th[C]is begins, I'll l[G]et you kn[Em]ow,
Sept[D]ember when it c[Em]omes.
