[Verse]

G       C
Life is designed
Em              C
With unfinished lines
G     D       G
That another sings

G          C
Each story unfolds
Em          C
Like it was gold
G     D        G
Upon a ragged wing

G                C
The bold and the fair
Em           C
Suffer their share
G   D             C
He whispered to his kin

G         C
All of my debts
Em        C
Left with regrets
G    D         G
I'm sorry for everything

[Chorus]
Am                      G
Trespasses stretch like broken fences
Em      D       C
Winding as they may
Am                      Em
Trespasses stretch like broken fences
F       C             D
Hope to mend them one day

[Verse]
          G             C
And she pinned back her hair
  Em             C
Shouldered with care
     G      D         G
The burdens that were his
G            C
Mending the coat
     Em           C
That hung on the post 
     G      D   G
In heart remembering

[Interlude]
G C Em C G D G x2

[Chorus]
Am                      G
Trespasses stretch like broken fences
Em      D       C
Winding as they may
Am                      Em
Trespasses stretch like broken fences
F       C             D
Hope to mend them one day


[Verse]
    G                C
And her time was to come
   Em          C
Called to her son
 G      D         G
This your song to sing

G           C
All of our debts
  Em        C
Wove with regrets
 G      D       G
Upon a golden string

   G                C
And he found the old coat
  Em        C
Hung on a post
  G    D       
Like a ragged wing

     G          C
And took as his own
     Em         C
The sewn and unsown
 G      D        G
Joyfully whistling
