Sugarfoot

Em---------------D
Sugarfoot's got two hands
--------Bm-------------G
Just as long as he can see
Em--------------D
One hand in the birdfeed
------Bm-----------G---F#
And a hand in the apple tree
---Em--------------------D
He stands in line just a little behind
--Bm---------------G
A yellow moon that hangs
---------Em-------------D
He's all tangled and he broke his sticks on the
Bm---------------------G---F#
Links of his own chain gang

You ought to see this home that he owns
It's like a box of jewelry
He's got his own church bell
And his bed, it lays in a gallery
And all the colors they shine like flames
Comin' in through the window pane
They end up gettin' checked over twice
For the reds of someone's veins

G------------D-------------Am
It's so cold and blown all apart
G---------------D-------------Am
It's so cold and needin' of a heart

He stands alone on top of his home
Where all the bluebirds flown
Sucks in on his cheeks and he cries
As he moans through a saxophone
Reaches high with his hands in the sky
Puts his fingers right into the storm
Always one to stand under the moon
And blow on his own horn
And anyone with anything has already begun to think
That somebody down there knows
Just how he sat down on his knees in the dirt
Buried someone's rainbow

It's so cold and blown all apart
It's so cold and needin' of a heart
It's so cold and blown all apart
It's so cold and needin' of a heart

Well I know you ain't my enemy
The only one's inside of me
He's killin' me getting free
I hear he wants my head with an old ice pick
And fix me up on a stick
And all I've ever got to be
Is everything I wanna be
And Sugarfoot disagrees
He still stands tall underneath that apple tree
Man, he's still watchin' me
His chain gang's tryin' to pull me down
Just like the birds and the fireflies
They shoot arrows up into the sky
And they burn all the feathers dry
He only wants to fill his belly up
With rocks 'till it hurts, then he stops
He don't know what to do with love
If it don't fill his belly to the top

It's so cold and blown all apart
It's so cold and needin' of a heart
It's so cold and blown all apart
It's so cold and needin' of a heart
