Intro: Am Esus Am Esus
Am I was alone my heart was Gcold it was a st
Am G _~_ Fmaj7
I shuffled through life invisible to all the happy couples who would mock
~
one, my soul was Fmaj7lonely like a stone - there was no mEoss. Am And when I danced I danced aGlone but then I d~
id not dance because IFmaj7 *was* alone. So I did not Edance. me with their meErry laughter "ha-ha-ha".
Am The only sound I heard in my lGonely silent world was the Frusty hammer of my
heart Enailing at the hatred in my Amsoul.
E - G - Am (quickly)
[ synth strings ]
But tGhen youCmaj7 came,
and my life was turned Dmupside Dmmaj7down. Dm7
Dm7 You showed me the beauty of the G7things that I had never seen.
C [ Embellish with Cmaj7, C/G and C ]
Like a snowflake that melts on the eyelash of a startled deer.
Or the Dmpainting of a Dmaj7dog that wears a Dm7deerstalker[1] and
sG7mokes a pipe that mDmade you laugh so heDmmaj7artily,
Dm7 but I had previously tG7hought was rCubbiCmaj7sh. C/G
Or the Dmduck that lands so Dmmaj7clumsily on a fDm7rozen pond in winter
but the iG7ntoxicating power of our love transforms this simple act into an
antChropomorphic drama where Mr. Duck's embaCmaj7rrassed and the other ducks are
laCughing (quacCmaj7k quackC/G quack quack quack).
E/ Am
AND THEN YOU LEFT! [Flamenco Style]
G And I have died a thousand Fdeaths and I will die a thousand Emore!
Am I thought you were an angGel - you tuFrned out to be a wEhore!
Am And everything has turned to dGust! Everything is infected with thFe plague! E
E Why did you have to sleep with AmCraig'
G "Oh he's so sensitFive, he's got a tattEoo."
Yeah, Fcarving your name with a compass in my forehead was Enot enough for you!

[ Flutes ]
Am The snow flake on the eye of the dear Ghas turned to
puss that ooFzes from an open woEund.
F The deer now blind it stumbles inEto a ravine.
Am The duck lies shredded in a Gpancake,
F soaking in the hoisin of your Elies.
Am The dog has moved from the pipe to G60 cigarettes a day,
and cFoughs away his life in the cDmold neon rEesearch lab of your bAmetrayal. G
Of your FbetrGayal.Am..(fade)
Love You Loads Nat!!
