Linger Let Me Linger

C

[VERSE 1]

           C                             D7
Like the thorn bush twines against the chain link fence
          Dm                                  Fm G
Like the spider spins its rings between the trees
         Dm              G#m  G        C
And the lonely sycamore bends to the breeze

[VERSE 2]

C                          D7
I am the puddles in the street
 Dm                        Fm  G
waiting for your falling leaves
  C                                     D7
Twine your vines around me, drop your branches in my path
 Dm                   Fm G
Linger, let me linger

[BRIDGE]

  F                Fm           C
Hearts drawn on a dusty window pane,
   Dm                     G
a love note lying in the road
   F             Fm                C
A car circling round a darkened street,
   Dm                   G
a woman crying on the phone

[VERSE 3]

C                                  D7
We are like the crickets in the spring,
 Dm                     Fm  G
calling out from under stones
  C                                     D7
Twine your vines around me, drop your branches in my path
 Dm                   Fm G
Linger, let me linger
