Intro A (with riff)

A                                                      D
She was running... with a shotgun... I could hear the sirens
         E                                      A
but I couldn’t move... I couldn’t even catch my breath

                         
A                                                     D
She was hiding... in the patterns... of her mother’s apron
         E                                     A
When I left that girl... she was just a little thing
         F#m                     D                A
But the summer’s gone and the leaves are turning over
      F#m                   D             A
It’s another day gone I’m another year older
    E        D                     A
Desolation, lonesome lonely desolation

A                                             D
I was seeking... understanding... they took a 14-year-old boy
         E                                                 A
Yeah, they locked him up... they tried to turn him into a man
A                                                      D
She told me what I need is... absolution... I said “Absolution girl?
     E                                       A
Come on now... that’s gonna be hard to arrange”

         F#m                     D                A
But the summer’s gone and the leaves are turning over
      F#m                   D             A
It’s another day gone I’m another year older
     E       D                     A
Desolation, lonesome lonely desolation

Bridge   Em G/F# G D    Em G/F# G Bm D      A (with riff)

         F#m                     D                A
Well the summer’s gone and the leaves are turning over
      F#m                   D             A
It’s another day gone I’m another year older
        F#m                           D                 A
And the tooth won’t come out and you can’t find another doctor
     E       D                     A
Desolation, lonesome lonely desolation
