about half past four.
Some sounds awoke me,
looked out my window.
C
Ab
Yes, I pulled the curtain,
C
looked out my window.
Ab
But the town was now silent,
C
Am
not a light in any house.
Just a pitter -patter of raindrops,
C
footsteps of a mouse,
stepping on was a mouse.

Then cutting through the damp dark,
C
Am
I heard the sirens high shrill.

It only sounded once though,

was collecting his bill,

Later that morning,
stepped on my stoop,

they were cold gray granite

granite stumps of a tree
