F         Fmaj7
I wasn't willing
   F7
To fight on the floor
   A#
Throwing the chairs through the door

I wasn't willing
To fight on the floor
Something to say to the poor

Chorus:
F              C
The storms in July
D#
Took off the trees
A#
Took off the place to be
F            C
The animals died
D#
Once in a while
A#
Once in a while

I wasn't willing
To make up the bed
Folding the sheets to your half

I wasn't willing
To say it again
Waiting for things to begin
