        C
Wearing raspberry velvet and
the rabbits in the hole
          C
Where the apple tree fell
over two years ago
    F
Man you could never stop,
it was always gonna go
            C
When you're hiding in the cotton
get a tickle in your soul

Let's go looking in the sugar cane

And wander round' the country

There's a mother of pearl

C
Hanging from your mirror
on a rubber band
