Wild Rosemarie

                E                          B
I thought about water, I thought about the rose late at night
                A                      A
I thought about drinking, I started to hope you were all right.
                    E                   B
And I thought about calling, but I was afraid you'd be asleep.
                A                              A
I thought about God as a shepard wandering the hells looking for lost sheep
                    E                            B
And I thought about Wild Rosemarie; how that was who you used to be
              A                              A
How the wilderness sprang up around us, this dry desert heat
                    E
And I thought about water
(Intro 2x)
                E                    B
I thought about honey, how I used to call you by it's name
                A
How you move so slow and sticky down my throat
        A
And how dry I became
                    E                      B
I thought about the highways, all tangeled up like a ball of snakes
               A                    A
and the poison backroads and what a long time it'd take
            E                              B
to find you Wild Rosemarie, all cracked up on I-93.
                    A                                       A
The choice was your own to strip flesh from the bone and become really free
                    E             B
And I thought about water, how it drowned us after all
               A                                     A
How we used to thirst for it to burst forth from the sky and start to fall
               E                          B
And I just got scared that you were still out wandering tonight
               A                 A
So here's this letter I hope you made it back alright
     E
Love always
( E  B  A )
