INTRO: [B] ^
[Bsus4] :
[x4]
VERSE 1:
[B] Pale, pubescent
[E] beasts, roam through the
[F#] streets and coffee
[G#m] shops
Their
[C#m7] prey gather in
[E] herds, The stiff knee-length
[Dadd9] skirts and white ankle-
[Gm/C]-socks
But
[B] while they search for a
[E] mate, my type hiber-
[F#]-nate in bedrooms a-
[G#m]-bove
Com-
[C#7]-posing their
[E] songs of
[B^Asus4] love
VERSE 2:
Young, uniform minds in uniform lines and uniform ties
Run round with trousers on fire and signs of desire they cannot disguise
While I try to find words as light as the birds that circle above
To put in my songs of love
CHORUS 1:
[G] Fate doesn't
[Em6] hang on a
[B] wrong or right
[G#m/11] choice
[G] Fortune de-
[Em6]-pends on the
[B] tone of your
[F#] voice
BRIDGE 1: [chording as second half of VERSE 1]
So sing while you have time, let the song shine down from above
And fill you with songs of love
INSTRUMENTAL: [over VERSE]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE 2:
So let's sing while we still can, while the song hangs high up above
Wonderful songs of love, beautiful songs of love
