Capo 4 Fret ************ [Intro] / [Verse 1] If there’s a diamond in my mind Will it dwindle down to naught Or will it always be defined If I cant fix it with my heart [Chorus] So I’m returning to the place That I might look into your eyes And look so hard that I can taste That winter sun that never sets The sparrow caught up in the nets The perfect chorus when it hits Don’t slam the door boy when you leave [Verse 2] Was heading northward when I saw That empty house out in the midst There are traces there for sure On every mouth you ever kissed [Chorus] So I’m returning to the word Find my place between the lines Where I might dutifully recall The blue within your seagull stare The funny ways you had to care For every little thing beyond compare Don’t slam the door boy when you leave Laa laa laaa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa [Chorus] now I call out in the gulf When you went walking with wolf Hey boy you really brought it on yourself Don’t slam the door boy when you leave The strangest for we ever faced The stark in every staging grace Is crushing diamonds into paste Don’t slam the door boy when you leave Don’t slam the door boy when you leave Don’t slam the door boy when you leave
