Dresser Drawer

G
The phone rings
                                   C
And I don't care who it is that is calling
         D7
You moved our things from ours to his
                          G
While outside the snow is falling

                                     G7
The wedding band that meant so much
                      C
Signified our blessed vow
            D7
Like coffee spills and unpaid bills and all my pills
                         G
It's in a dusty dresser drawer now


I watched these trees from green to brown
                                    C
Suddenly this small town has gotten smaller
           D7
The arctic breeze it sings to me, and says now look
                               G
Any fool can go out and walk on water

                                G7
I shoulda known that time alone
                             C
Would only serve to break you down
          D7
Don't know why I sit and stare at that damn thing sitting there
                         G
In a dusty dresser drawer now

                   C
Snow has turned to water

To please the trees
                       G
And cheer up that late bloomer
          D7
While I'm sipping on a beer counting down another year
                       G
Couldn't come a second sooner

                                             C
I wonder how easily that ring it slid off of your finger
       D7
Did you stop for a moment
                     G
Let the memory of us linger

                               G7
Or was it just an afterthought
                        C
Like casting water from a bow
       D7
I'm past the point of crying

For a love that lies there dying
                          G
In a dusty dresser drawer now

     D7
It's such a goddamn shame

Right next to your picture frame
                          G
In a dusty dresser drawer now
     D7
If anybody asks me what I think, that love is for now, I'll tell them
                               G
Look in a dusty dresser drawer now
