Just so happens I've got that one on the machine....  Let's see now...
Oh yeah, a caveat, since I actually play mandolin I usually simpify guitar
chords, not knowing how to translate them there sus's and things...  So this
might not be strictly chapter and verse, but it works.  Enjoy.

Forty-Five Years  (guitar - capo 3rd fret) - By Stan Rogers


           
G
Where the Earth show it bones of wind broken stone

         
D/F#
and the sea and the sky are one

     
Am
                      
C
I'm caught out of time, my blood sings with wine

          
D/F#
and I'm running naked in the sun

         
G
There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees

        
D/F#
and the sky is a painful blue

     
Am
                       
C
          
D/F#
     
G
I'd like to look around, but Honey all I see is you.

That I want to see your smiling face forty five years from now.

The summer city lights will soften the night

          
D
'Til you'd think that the air is clear

         
Am
                           
C
And I'm sitting with friends where forty-five cents

      
D
Will buy another glass of beer

            
G
He's got something to say, but I'm so far away

         
D
That I don't know who I'm talking to

         
Am
                             
C
             
D
      
G
'Cause you just walked in the door, and Honey, All I see is you.


To Chorus

       
G
So alone in the lights on stage every night

             
D/F#
I've been reaching out to find a friend

      
Am
                  
C
Who knows all the words, sings so she's heard

     
D/F#
And knows how all the stories end

       
G
Maybe after the show she'1l ask me to go

      
D/F#
Home with her for a drink or two

         
Am
                         
C
            
D/F#
   
G
Now her smile lights her eyes, but Honey, all I see is you.
