To figure out her plucking pattern and the rest of the lyrics, listen to the tape-it's fairly easy. Enjoy! D Ophelia drowned in the water D Crushed by her own weight C Hitler loved the blue eyed boys C and it drove him to hate D Birds always grow silent before the night descends D G Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend I saw a man with a hole he could not fill He couldn't make the world work for him and didn't work and still (??) There was a hole inside his soul (same as verse 1) that whiskey could not still So he found himself a girl to love while babies choked in the windowsill D C We've made houses for hatred G It's time we make a place where D C G People's souls may be seen and made safe D C G be careful with each other these fragile flames D C D C G Innocence can't be lost it just needs to be maintained Bridge: A G A G A G A C
