Emmylou Harris - Slow surprise

There is a way that^C subtle changes come to sta^Amy Barely notice^Fd, hardly known ^Am One day you'll say my situati^Con's locked^Am away But by tomorr^Fow you're all alone ^Am It seems so sudden, bu^Ct it's not, it's only grown^{F Am} From a seed th^Cat long ago was left for^Ggotten in the snow ^{F Am} And has a way with s^Clow surprises all its own ^{F Am}

It's hard to show, but^C like a boulder rollin' s^Amlow Or a rum^Fble deep in the ground ^Am Things whisper low and by th^Ce time I really know ^Am What's been movin' they^F've settled down ^Am Too lat^Ce to see the way they shif^Ft around ^Am Too ^Clate to say th^Gere's bound to be another way ^{F Am} It's all^C been said and done without a^F sound ^Am

This comes to me, and now t^Chat I begin to see ^Am It's not drama^Ftic, it's nothing grand ^Am I used to be half ^Cof the whole of you a^Amnd me Now I'm the limit of al^Fl I am ^Am It seems so simple, no^Cthin' much to under stand ^{F Am} You walked out and clos^Ced the door, said I don't live ^Ghere anymore Am ^{F Am} And now nothin's ^Changin' heavy in my hands ^{F Am} Now nothin'^Cs hangin' heavy in my hands ^{F Am} In my hand ^C in my hands^{Am F}Nothin's hanging heavy in my ^Amhands
