Sunday Sessions: "Evergreen Cemetery"
Available from April 8 - 15

I had a lot in mind to write about this song, but I just got back from a wild hike up Tumbledown Mountain in the snow and I'm wiped. Hopefully I'll come back to it sometime this week.

Thanks for listening everyone and I hope to see some of you at upcoming shows: Providence 4/14, Burlington 4/17, New York City 4/18, Brunswick 4/28, Portland 4/30 -- more details on all those at maxgarciaconover.com.

Tumbledown is spectacular, by the way. Hope you had a good holiday.

-Max

____________________________________________________________

evergreen cemetery


wheat fields
softly in the night you were never going to be that way
chasing it
dead grass sticking to your face

evergreen
stopping in the mud there are bodies under here you'd say
that wanted things
it's just a story would you tell it anyway

I knew you so well
did you know

there was a
leaf rain coming that would stop between the sky and ground
and running through
you could drink it just by opening your mouth

but before
you couldn't stand the sadness or the thirst of an overcast
and even worse
when it was good you knew it always came back

I know you so well
did you know
