Dm
You heard the crickets of the early eve
A
They lurk around the opening in twos and threes
Dm
Clementine told you not to move with the breeze
A Dm
It'll take you down to places where we dare not speak
[Chorus]
Dm G
The red light in the doorway says she's armed
A Dm

A Dm

Dm G
I know you didn't mean it, though you meant so well
A Dm
The pennies are cascading down your wishing well
Dm G
I know you didn't mean it when you counted to ten
A Dm G
You've got your reputation and your good intent
A Dm
Such a good intent
[Outro]
Dm G
It's not enough to hope for the best
A Dm
It's not enough to lie there on a breast
Dm G
The liger's on the prowl now you've pulled its strings
Dm G A
