Intro: E5 E5 C5 D5 ( D5 )
B5
We set out in the Spring =
D5
With a trunkful of books about everything.
B5
About solar devices
D5
And how nice natural childbirth is.
C5
We cut down some trees and trailed our ideals
B5
Through the forest glade.
C5
We dammed up the stream and the kids cooled their heels
B5
In the fishing pool we made.
E5 E5
We held hands and we exchanged bands
C5 C5 D5
And we practically lived off the land.
B5
You adopted a fox cub
D5
Whose mother was somebody's coat.
B5
You fed him by hand, then snuggled him down
D5
In the grandfather bed, while I wrote.
C5
And we grew our own maize
B5
And I only occasionally went into town
C5
To stock up on antibiotics
B5
And shells for the shotgun that I kept around.
E5 E5
I told the kids stories while you worked your loom
C5 C5 D5
And the sun went down sooner each day.

Then the leaves all fell down,
D5
And the crops all turned brown. It was over.
B5
As the first snowflakes fell
D5
I realized all was not well in the camp.
C5
The kids caught bronchitis,
B5
The space heater ran out of diesel,
C5
One weekend a friend from the east
B5
(Rot his soul) stole your heart.
E5 E5
I said, =D2Fuck it then, take the kids back to town,
C5 C5 D5 D5
Maybe I'll see you around.=D3

And so leaving all our hopes and dreams
C5 C5 D5 =
To the wind and the rain,
D5 G5 E5 =
Taking only our stash,
E5 E5
Left our litter and trash
C5 C5
And set out =
