***MY BLUE HEAVEN - written by Philip Chevron and Darryl Hunt from the album "Peace And Love" My Blue Heaven - As performed by The Pogues INTRO: C F G (4x)
CAlligators snap at your ankles And Fbranches snap at your Gbrain If I Cever get through this swamp alive I'll Fnevermore pray for Grain CThis must be the place, and still SomeFhow it don't seem Gright CThat something in the moon Could change these Fendless days To Glonely nights
I take a stroll down by the sea And walk along the pier Then I slip and hit my head Now's the time to fear See the surface, see the rocks See my past fly swiftly by I feel the water in my lungs And wake up screaming for my life
CIn my blue heaven There's a Fbottle of PontcheGtrain CChalmette by moonlight To Ftake away the Gpain CCard sharks and Gblue harps And Fdolphins who can Gleap CIn my Blue Heaven Where FI can laugh And GI can weep
Black shapes zip into corners The big lads start to crawl To holes of their own making In the cracks within the wall Snakes and rats and spiders I know that they're still there I pray to God that I may sleep Without a hope, without a care In my blue heaven There's a bottle of Pontchetrain Chalmette by moonlight To take away the pain Felines and sea lions And rain on the beach In my Blue Heaven With angels who are out of reach In my blue heaven There's a bottle of Pontchetrain Chalmette by moonlight To take away the pain Nightingales sing And the bells they will ring In my Blue Heaven The Bells of Hell Go ding-A-ling-A-ling C F C G C F C G C (repeated to fade out)
