Fade on the Line Lyrics

CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C F
Our house has fallen
But the clothesline still stands
The ghost of your dress
Got hung out again
Maybe I'm a ghost too
That couldn't leave town
Me and this clothesline
We still hang around
CHORUS:
And now I'm so dry
As everything passes by
But I won't leave on the wind
I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line
N.C. C
They say everything changes
But the grave's always been here
From under the covers
That turned everywhere
If I knew then
Oh, what I know now
I'd-a carried your colours
Far away from this town
CHORUS:
And now I'm, I'm so dry
As everything passes by
But I won't leave on the wind
I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line
BRIDGE:
If you were here right now
You'd find a way to help me down
If you were here right now
You'd pull me down to the ground
N.C. C
I wish I could visit
A graveyard for noise
The sound of the trains
And girls chasing boys
I'd walk by each headstone
And leave flowers beside
I'd wanna (bring) Sookie
Her sweet voice here lies
CHORUS:
And now I'm, I'm so dry
As everything passes by
But I won't leave on the wind
I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line
CHORUS:
And now I'm, I'm so dry
As everything passes by
But I won't leave on the wind
I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line
OUTRO:
N.C. C
Our house has fallen
But the clothesline still stands
