Interlude
EACDEGFB
Verse
EACDE
Now that there are green sprouts pushing through dead leaves,
AEB
and fat yellow jackets float on the breeze,
EACDE
the waves kiss the shore and the air is warm,
AEAE
but birch trees are falling now that you are gone.
Chorus
ACDE
Once we walked the crumbling cliffs
ACDE
where the birch trees lean;
ACDE
Once I kissed your apple lips
AEB
high above the sea.
Interlude
EACDEGFB
Verse
EACDE
A year ago it was when the last clover grew.
AEB
Under creaking birch trees I would wait for you.
EACDE
We kissed in the salt air between the leaning trees,
AEAE
white slender branches bent to the sea.
Chorus
ACDE
Once we walked the crumbling cliffs
ACDE
where the birch trees lean;
ACDE
now who will kiss your apple lips
AEB
under the salty sea
