E                  F
Saw the sycamore   underneath the moon

Am                                        C
I was waiting for something, and you were sleeping

                 D
out there in the living room

           E         F
and it was 5:16 AM   the air was sharp and cool

Am                                  C           D
and I wondered where you buried our dark little jewel


Chorus:

              G              D
and the heat (flies?) in the room

             C                    D
I am digging graves, I am digging graves

               G            D
and the water boiling on the stove

             C                 D
I am digging graves, I am digg-ing graves
