Verse 1
Bm
He died with his boots on
Bm
G
The way he once said it would be
Bm
He's a scoundrel, I guess,
Bm
G
But he was always a good friend to me
A
Em
He talked of a girl he'd known long ago
Bm
His eyes welled with tears
A
when he tried to explain
How the sound of her voice
Em
had made him feel whole
Bm
And the smell of her skin,
G
A
like sage after rain
D

Bm
I'd go to East Colfax with
Bm
G
Back in high school for something to do
Bm
And that's where I met him
G
when he bought us some beer
Bm
G
A six -pack if he could have two
D
A
He said, come back to my place
Em
you can drink it there safe
Bm
don't worry it's cool
A
then he gave us his name
i paused at a picture
Em
and he told me about her
Bm
and the smell of her skin
A
G
D
Like sage after ray,

G
and we'd talk bulk for hours
G
as he'd quote from his head
D
Bm
There's an old royal typewriter,
Bm
G
Three novels in boxes under his bed.
Em
his grandfather'd left him,
Bm
He grew up in Boston,
A
G
came west on a train.
A
The snow -covered front range,
Em
and a lovely young teacher,
Bm
The smell of her skin,
G
A
like sage after rain,
G
A
Like sage after rain
D
G
D
Like sage after rain
Em
She was killed in the wreck
D
that left him half broken
Em
He told me about it one
Em
Some people said it'd help
Em
He said that made less
D
than no difference at all.
A
He'd talk of her beauty,
Em
her ice and her fire.
Bm
He'd smile when he'd
call her broad
But there was always respect,
Em
and his memories were tender
Bm
in the smell of her skin,
G

like sage after rain,

They called me about him early one mornin'
Bm
I made the arrangements
D

G
No wife, no children, no next of kin there
Bm
Like it said in his will,
A
G
A
I drove north to Wyoming
Em
in a late April drizzle
Bm
A place where we'd hunted
Em
I spread him about in the place he'd chosen
Bm
G
A
A prayer and a breath of sage after rain
