Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
ch]F#m[/ch
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her
ch]E[/ch
And you know that she's half-crazy, but that's why you wanna be there
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And she feeds you tea & oranges that come all the way from China
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Then she gets you on her wavelength & she lets the river answer
ch]E[/ch
That you've always been her lover
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
ch]E[/ch
And you know that she will trust you,
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
And Jesus was a sailor, when he walked upon the water
ch]F#m[/ch
And he spent a long time watching, from his lonely wooden tower
ch]E[/ch
And when he knew for certain, only drowning men could see him
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
he said 'All men will be sailors then, until the sea shall free them
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And you want to travel with him, and you want to travel blind
ch]E[/ch
And you think maybe you'll trust him
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]E[/ch
Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river
ch]F#m[/ch
She is wearing rags and feathers, from Salvation Army counters
ch]E[/ch
And the sun pours down like honey, on our lady of the harbour
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And she shows you where to look, among the garbage and the flowers
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
They are leaning out for love, and they will lean that way forever
ch]E[/ch
While Suzanne holds the mirror
ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And you want to travel with her, and you want to travel blind
ch]E[/ch
And you know that you can trust her,
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind

2. Master Song
Capo 3rd fret
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I believe that you heard your master sing
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
when I was sick in bed.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I suppose that he told you everything
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
that I keep locked away in my head.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Your master took you travelling,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
well at least that's what you said.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
And now do you come back to bring
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
your prisoner wine and bread?
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
You met him at some temple, where
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
they take your clothes at the door.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
He was just a numberless man in a chair
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
who'd just come back from the war.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And you wrap up his tired face in your hair
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
and he hands you the apple core.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
of all the kisses we put on some time before.
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
And he gave you a German Shepherd to walk
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
with a collar of leather and nails,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
and he never once made you explain or talk
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
about all of the little details,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
such as who had a word and who had a rock,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
and who had you through the mails.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
Now your love is a secret all over the block,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
and it never stops not even when your master fails
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
And he took you up in his aeroplane,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
which he flew without any hands,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
and you cruised above the ribbons of rain
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
that drove the crowd from the stands.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Then he killed the lights in a lonely Lane
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
and, an ape with angel glands,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
erased the final wisps of pain
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
with the music of rubber bands.
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
And now I hear your master sing,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
you kneel for him to come.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
His body is a golden string
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
that your body is hanging from.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
His body is a golden string,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
my body has grown numb.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
Oh now you hear your master sing,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
your shirt is all undone.
Verse 6→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
And will you kneel beside this bed
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
that we polished so long ago,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
before your master chose instead
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
to make my bed of snow?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
and you're speaking far too low.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
No I can't make out what your master said
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
before he made you go.
Verse 7→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
Then I think you're playing far too rough
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
for a lady who's been to the moon;
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I've lain by this window long enough
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
to get used to an empty room.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And your love is some dust in an old man's cough
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
who is tapping his foot to a tune,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
and your thighs are a ruin, you want too much,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
let's say you came back some time too soon.
Verse 8→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I loved your master perfectly
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I taught him all that he knew.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
He was starving in some deep mystery
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
like a man who is sure what is true.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And I sent you to him with my guarantee
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
I could teach him something new,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
and I taught him how you would long for me
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
no matter what he said no matter what you'd do.
Verse 9→ Phiên khúc
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I believe that you heard your master sing
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
while I was sick in bed,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I'm sure that he told you everything
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch
I must keep locked away in my head.
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Your master took you travelling,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
well at least that's what you said,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch
And now do you come back to bring
ch]C[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
your prisoner wine and bread?

D11/A: x 0 4 0 3 x
Intro
Amaj7 D11+
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
D11+ Amaj7 D11+ C
Traveling lady stay awhile
D11+ Amaj7 D11+
Until the night is over
D11+ Amaj7 D11+ C
I'm just a station on your way
D11+ Amaj7 D11+
I know I am not your lover
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
Well, I lived with a child of snow
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
When I was a soldier
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
And I fought every man for her
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
Until the nights grew colder
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
D11+ Amaj7 D11+ C
She used to wear her hair like you
D11+ Amaj7 D11+
Except when she was sleeping
D11+ Amaj7 D11+ C
And then she'd weave it on a loom
D11+ Amaj7 D11+
Of smoke and gold and breathing
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
And why are you so quiet now
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
Standing there in the doorway?
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
You chose your journey long before
ch]D11/A[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch
You came upon this highway

Traveling lady stay awhile
D11+ Amaj7 D11+

I know I am not your lover

4. The Stranger Song
Tuning: down one tone (D G C F A D)
Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
It's true that all the men you knew were dealers
ch]E[/ch
Who said they were through with dealing
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Every time you gave them shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
I know that kind of man
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
It's hard to hold the hand of anyone
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
ch]E[/ch
You find he did not leave you very much
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Not even laughter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
That is so high and wild
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
He'll never need to deal another
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
And then leaning on your window sill
ch]A[/ch
He'll say one day you caused his will
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And then taking from his wallet
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
An old schedule of trains, he'll say
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
I told you when I came I was a stranger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
I told you when I came I was a stranger
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
But now another stranger seems
ch]A[/ch
To want you to ignore his dreams
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
As though they were the burden of some other
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
O you've seen that man before
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
His golden arm dispatching cards
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
But now it's rusted from the elbow to the finger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Ah you hate to watch another tired man
Lay down his hand
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Like he was giving up the holy game of
ch]E[/ch
And while he talks his dreams to sleep
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
You notice there's a highway
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
That is curling up like smoke above his shoulder
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
It's curling just like smoke above his shoulder
Verse 6→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
You tell him to come in sit down
ch]A[/ch
But something makes you turn around
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch
The door is open you can't close your shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
You try the handle of the road
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
It opens do not be afraid
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
It's you my love, you who are the stranger
Verse 7→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
Well, I've been waiting, I was sure
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
We'd meet between the trains we're waiting for
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
I think it's time to board another
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Please understand, I never had a secret chart
ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
To get me to the heart of this
ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Or any other matter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
When he talks like this you don't know what he's after
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
When he speaks like this, you don't know what he's after
Verse 8→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
Let's meet tomorrow if you choose
ch]A[/ch
Upon the shore, beneath the bridge
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
That they are building on some endless river
ch]E[/ch
Then he leaves the platform
ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
For the sleeping car that's warm
ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
You realize, he's only advertising one more shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And it comes to you, he never was a stranger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And you say okay the bridge or someplace later
Verse 9→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
ch]E[/ch
You find he did not leave you very much
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Not even laughter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Like any dealer he was watching for the card
ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
That is so high and wild
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
He'll never need to deal another
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
Verse 10→ Phiên khúc
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/A[/ch
And then leaning on your window sill
ch]A[/ch
He'll say one day you caused his will
ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch

ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch

ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
I told you when I came I was a stranger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
I told you when I came I was a stranger
ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#sus4[/ch
I told you when I came I was a stranger

ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song

Oh I hope you run into them you who've been traveling so long
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control
ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
It begins with your family, but soon it comes round to your soul
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
Well I've been where you're hanging I think I can see how you're pinned
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
When you're not feeling holy your loneliness says that you've sinned
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]G#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem

And you won't make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night
ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right

We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right

I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web

is fastening my ankle to a stone
ch]A[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch

Oh, you are really such a pretty one
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch

And just when I climbed this whole mountainside
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]Esus4[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
to wash my eyelids in the rain

The stories of the street are mine, the Spanish voices laugh

The Cadillacs go creeping now through the night and the poison gas
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
And I lean from my window sill in this old hotel I chose
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Yes one hand on my suicide, one hand on the rose

But let me ask you one more time, o children of the dusk
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
All these hunters who are shrieking now oh do they speak for us?

And where do all these highways go, now that we are free?
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
Why are the armies marching still that were coming home to me?
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
O lady with your legs so fine, o stranger at your wheel
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
You are locked into your suffering and your pleasures are the seal

The age of lust is giving birth, and both the parents ask
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
The nurse to tell them fairy tales on both sides of the glass
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
And now the infant with his cord is hauled in like a kite
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And one eye filled with blueprints, one eye filled with night

And grow us grass and apples there and keep all the animals warm

And if by chance I wake at night and I ask you who I am
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
O take me to the slaughterhouse, I will wait there with the lamb

With one hand on the hexagram and one hand on the girl
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em7[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
I balance on a wishing well that all men call the world
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F#[/ch] [ch]B[/ch
We are so small between the stars, so large against the sky
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And lost among the subway crowds I try to catch your eye

to make you jealous of me
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
but the room just filled up with mosquitoes
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
they heard that my body was free.
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
and I put it in your little shoe
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch

and your name was mentioned in it.
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
with the details of our honeymoon
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
and I hear from the nurse

I heard of a saint who had loved you
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
So I studied all night in his school
ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch
he taught that the duty of lovers
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
is to tarnish the golden rule.
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
And just when I was sure
ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch
that his teachings were pure
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
he drowned himself in the pool

the poor man could hardly stop shivering,
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E[/ch
his lips and his fingers were blue.
ch]F#m[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
I suppose that he froze
ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]C#m[/ch
when the wind took your clothes
ch]D[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
and I guess he just never got warm
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
but you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
ch]Bm[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
o, please let me come into the storm.
