[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
F C
Scattered papers on the floor,
Em Am
From the days and weeks before,
G F G C Csus4 C
Scattered pages, scattered thoughts, scattered mind,
F C
Sat my coat down on the chair,
Em Am
I heard her walking up the stairs,
G F G C Csus4 C
So I got up, sat her coat next to mine.
[Verse 2]
F C
She's the queen of movin' slow,
Em Am
When it's ten past time to go,
G F G C Csus4 C
Never hurried, she's the queen of movin' slow,
F C
When the day is all but done,
Em Am
We'll go lay out in the sun,
G F G C Csus4 C
Not a worry when the day's all but done.
[Chorus]
F C
She's a bluejay singing to the mountain air,
F C
A long hot summer in an old lawn chair,
F C Gadd11 G
And back up baby just a step, let me see,
Dm7 C
I took the time and the liberty of asking why,
F C
You found a home in my scattered mind,
F C G G7
When everything else around could up and leave,
F C
But you stick close to me.
[Interlude]
F C
[Verse 3]
F C
Winter's gone and up the bank,
Em Am
Now I've finally time to think,
G F G C Csus4 C
Praise the heavens winter finally turns to spring,
F C
I'll pick a flower as it blooms,
Em Am
Bring it right on home to you,
G F G C Csus4 C
Put it in your hair above your eyes of blue.
[Chorus]
F C
She's a bluejay singing to the mountain air,
F C
A long hot summer in an old lawn chair,
F C Gadd11 G
And back up baby just a step, let me see,
Dm7 C
I took the time and the liberty of asking why,
F C
You found a home in my scattered mind,
F C G G7
When everything else around could up and leave,
F C
But you stick close to me.
[Interlude]
F C
[Outro]
F C
Scattered papers on the floor,
Em Am
From the days and weeks before,
G F G C
Scattered pages, scattered thoughts, scattered mind.
