[VERSE]
Am         D7          E             D
 Bartholomew how’d you end up in the coffee? 
Am         D7        D     C        A
 Bartholmew were you going down in flames? 

Am         D7             E                   D7
 Was it a girl? and did I hear you call her softly?
           Am     Fmaj  Dm9*   G     A
 No, this world of lunacy made me insane 

[CHORUS]
A        D            A           F#m     E             
 Once I lay beside a stream and I looked into it 
A         D          F#m    E      Dm
 A dandelion next to me and then I blew it 
                        Am
my life was scattered in the breeze

Am               D7             D      C     A
 They closed the town won’t you let me go to sleep? 
Am       D7         E             D7
 Bartholomew I’m so sorry for my squawking

A        D          F#m     E         Dm
