[A] [Am]
All right, little man.
[A] [Am]
[G] [Am] [N] So my name's Colin, and I'm just going to play some songs.
I guess I don't know what songs I'm going to play,
but I'm going to assume that they'll [G] come to me in [Am] visions.
[G] [D] I'll start with [G] this, since this is the obvious one.
[Am] [G]
[Am] [G]
[Am] Here on these cliffs of [Em]
Dover, so high you can't see over.
[Am] And while your head is spinning, [Em] hold tight, it's just beginning.
[Am] [G]
[Am] [G]
[Am] You come from parents wanton, [Em] a childhood rough and rotten.
[A] I come from wealth and [Em] beauty, untouched [G] by work or duty.
And [C] oh, [E] my [Em] love, [D] my [F] love.
[G]
[C] And oh, my [A] [Em] love, my [F] love.
[E] We both go down [A] together.
[G]
[Am] [G]
[A] I found you a tattoo to ram, [Em] a dirty daughter from the labor camp.
[Am] I laid you down in the grass of a clearing.
[Em] You [G] wept, but your soul was willing.
[C] And oh, my [Em] love, my [F] love.
[G]
[C] And oh, [Em] my love, my [F] love.
[G] [E] We both go [Dm] down [F] together.
And my parents will [Am] never consent to this love.
[A]
[F] But I hold your [G] hand.
[Ab]
[G] [A] Meet me on my vast veranda, [Em] my sweet untouched Miranda.
[Am] And [A] while the seagulls are [Em] crying, we fall, but [G] our souls are flying.
[C] And oh, my [Em] love, my [F] love.
[G]
And [C] oh, [Em] my love, [D] my [F] love.
[G]
[C] And oh, [Em] my love, oh, [F] my love.
[G] And [C] oh, [Em] my love, my [F] love.
[E] We both go down [Eb] together.
[A] [Am]
[B] [D]
[Am] Thank you.
