         Eb(VI)     Gm(III)   Ab        Bb
She was shaking and talking louder and louder
    Eb(XI)        Gm(X)       Ab         Bb
each sentence was sifted to a very fine powder
       Eb(VI)    Gm(III)       Ab             Bb
and her face was wet and tight, her grip was cold and light

"a strong wind could blow you down",   I heard myself say

                     & she  said  "word up, sister,  a strong wind
N.C.
could take me away"
Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab  Bb        Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab  Bb   x 2
Eb(VI)       Gm(III)      Ab       Bb
I said, "How long have you been at large?
     Eb(XI)           Gm(X)    Ab          Bb
they told me you were stashed last time I asked"
              Eb(VI)     Gm(III)    Ab            Bb
and she said, "I've been out now for all of three hours
Eb(XI)    Gm(X)        Ab              Gm(III)
I just resurfaced and       here you are
Fm
I must admit that it has been hard so far"
Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab  Bb        Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab  Bb   x 2
  Eb(VI)             Gm(III)    Ab             Bb
I said, "skeletons are fine,     your closet or mine"
Eb(XI)   Gm(X)                 Ab           Bb
we took turns recounting the details of lost time
 Eb(VI)         Gm(III)     Ab       Bb
and when we had both     admitted it all
Eb(XI)       Gm(X)              Ab              Gm(III)
we threw our heads back and we laughed until we cried
Fm
we laughed coz the world is absurd and beautiful and small
Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab  Bb        Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab  Bb   x 2
    Eb(VI)    Gm(III)    Ab        Bb
and there we were washed up on the curb
        Eb(XI) Gm(X)             Ab            Bb
as the  rush   hour traffic went out with the tide
      Eb(VI) Gm(III)      Ab           Bb
and I was  aware   that    with every word
 Eb(XI)     Gm(X)                  Ab          Gm(III)
spoken and shared, I could see her   shaking subside
Fm
I said, "sister, looks to me    like you're going to be fine"
Eb(VI) Gm(III) Ab  Bb        Eb(XI) Gm(X) Ab  Bb   x 2
Eb(VI) Gm(III)  x 3
