copied from another tab website. Real author below CAPO 1 [Intro] D A Bm A [Verse]

^G/B The man in ^A119 takes his ^Dtea all a^Glone. ^D Mornings ^Gwe all rise, ^Dto wireless ^GVerdi cries. ^D I'm hearing ^Gopera through the ^Adoor.

^G/B The souls of ^Amen and women, ^D impassioned ^Gall. ^D Their voices ^Gclimb and fall; ^D battle ^Gtrumpets call. ^D I fill the ^Gbath and climb in^Aside, singing

[Chorus]

^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala ^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala

[Verse]

^G/B He will not ^Atouch their pastry but ^Devery day they bring him ^Gmore. ^D Gold from the ^Gbreakfast tray, ^D I steal them ^Gall away ^D and then go ^Geat them on the ^Ashore.

[Chorus]

^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala ^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala ^A ^G ^F la la ^Gla la la ^Ala-la-la-la-la

[Verse]

^G/B I draw a ^Ajackal-headed ^Dwoman in the ^Gsand ^D sing of a ^Glover’s fate ^D sealed by ^Gjealous hate and ^Dwash my hand in the ^Gsea. ^DWith just ^Gthree days more I’d have ^Djust about ^Glearned the ^Aentire score to ^AAida.

^G Ho-oh-^Aolidays must ^Dend, as you ^Gknow. ^D All is ^Gmemory, ^D taken ^Ghome with me: the ^Dopera, the ^Gstolen tea, the ^Dsand drawing, the ^Gvirgin sea, all ^Ayears ago.

[Chorus]

^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala ^D la la ^G/Bla la la ^Ala
