Em         G6              A 
Wet grounds, late September 
Em               A      Bm7 
The foliage of the trees 
Em                        G6                 A

And I could never break out 
           G6   B     Em 
And shake its grip on me 
 
Em G6 A  
Em G6 A

Out there by the roadside someone's lyin'

Covered by  sycamore leaves
