As recorded by Laura Marling
(From the 2011 Album A CREATURE I DON'T KNOW)
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
DMy friends, my dear friends
BAnd lovers, oh my lovers
I leave you for them Bm
They got a hand on my Dback
[Vedrse 2]
DMama has money now and Mama has friends
DShe's making rags for some uptown hags
With their money in bags Bm
And why are you so Dsad?
[Verse 3]
DWhy are you always so sad?Bm
Why do I not underDstand?
DWhy don't I see what it is you see?
Why can't I live and just be?Bm
I'm full of guilt D
DI am full of guilt
DYou're very tall, you're very handsome
DYou have it all, your skin smells like man
And BmI, you never know how I achDed
DYou will never know how I ache
[Verse 4]
DEver considered the sea?
DI heard you had to be strong
DWhy not float around with me?
It won't take you so longBm
You can go where I'm Dat
DYou can hang around with me
[Bridge]
DAnd a few Agood men Dwill go where they oughGt
Where they ought not beD A
And a Dfew Agood moDthers go for what thGey
What they ought not teachA D A
And I Dlong Afor a touch or Dreminder of us, butG
But it must Dnot be A
And a Dfew strong branches over watGer
Reach for what they ought not Dreach
[Outro]
DI hope your mother knows where it is you have been
DI hope your mother knows what it is you have seeDmn
She'd be sDo proud
