Belle & Sebastian - Piazza, new york catcher

^GElope with me Miss Private and we’ll^C sail around th^Ge world ^AmI will be your Ferdinand and y^Emou my wayward girl How m^Amany nights of talking in hot^Del rooms can you take? How m^Amany nights of limping round on ^Dpagan holidays? Oh elo^Cpe with me in private and we’l^Eml set something ablaze A t^Amrail for the d^Devil to er^Emase

^GSan Francisco’s calling us, th^Ce Giants and Mets wil^Gl play ^AmPiazza, New York catcher, are you ^Emstraight or are you gay? We ^Amhung about the stadium, we’v^De got no place to stay We ^Amhung about the tenderloin and ^Dtenderly you tell About the ^Csaddest book you ever read, it ^Emalways makes you cry The ^Amstatue’s cryin^Dg too and well h^Eme may

I ^Glove you I’ve a drowning grip o^Cn your adorin^Gg face I ^Amlove you my responsibili^Emty has found a place Be^Amside you and strong warnings in the ^Dguise of gentle words Come ^Amwave upon me from the family^D wider net absurd “You’ll t^Cake care of her, I know it, you w^Emill do a better job” ^AmMaybe, but ^Dnot what she de^Emserves

El^Gope with me Miss Private and we’l^Cl drink ourselve^Gs awake We’l^Aml taste the coffee houses and ^Emaward certificates A ^Amprivy seal to keep the feel of ^D1960 style We’l^Aml comment on the decor and we??^D?ll help the passer by And at ^Cdusk when work is over we’ll c^Emontinue the debate In a ^Amborrowed bedroom ^Dvirginal and s^Empare

The ^Gcatcher hits for .318 and ^Ccatches every ^Gday The ^Ampitcher puts religion first and ^Emrests on holidays He ^Amgoes into cathedrals and lies ^Dprostrate on the floor He ^Amknows the drink affects his speed he’^Ds praying for A doorway Back in^Cto the life he wants and the conf^Emession of the bench ^AmLife outside the ^Ddiamond is a ^Emwrench

I ^Gwish that you were here with me to ^Cpass the dull ^Gweekend I ^Amknow it wouldn’t come to love, m^Emy heroine pretend A ^Amlady stepping from the songs we ^Dlove until this day You’^Amd settle for an epitaph like^D “Walk Away, Renee” The sun up^Con the roof in winter will draw ^Emyou out like A flower

^AmMeet you at the ^Dstatue in an ^Emhour ^AmMeet you at the ^Dstatue in an ^Emhour
