She was shaking and talking louder and louder
Ab Bb
each sentence was sifted to a very fine powder
Ab Bb
and her face was wet and tight, her grip was cold and light
E
"a strong wind could blow you down", I heard myself say
E
& she said "word up, sister, a strong wind
N.C.
Ab Bb
I said, "How long have you been at large?
Ab Bb
they told me you were stashed last time I asked"
Ab Bb
and she said, "I've been out now for all of three hours
Ab
I just resurfaced and here you are
Fm
I must admit that it has been hard so far"
Ab Bb
I said, "skeletons are fine, your closet or mine"
Ab Bb
we took turns recounting the details of lost time
Ab Bb
and when we had both admitted it all
Ab
we threw our heads back and we laughed until we cried
Fm
we laughed coz the world is absurd and beautiful and small
Ab Bb
and there we were washed up on the curb
Ab Bb
as the rush hour traffic went out with the tide
Ab Bb
and I was aware that with every word
Ab
spoken and shared, I could see her shaking subside
Fm
I said, "sister, looks to me like you're going to be fine"
