[A] [D] [A] And [D] so the story goes, they wore the clothes, they said the things to make [E] it seem improbable.
[A] A whale of [D] a lie like the hope it was.
[Em] [A] [D]
And the good men tomorrow had their feet in the wallow [Em] and their heads are brown with nice [A] ashorn.
And how they bought their [D] positions with saccharine and trust.
[Em] And the world was asleep [A] to our latent fuss.
[D]
[Em] Signs swirled through the [A] streets like the crust of the sun, [Bm] the view gave rudders.
Then [A] our winds left bark, flashing [G] teeth of frost, standing [F#] tall in the dark.
[A]
[G] With your 12 men we were [Em] so turned on by your lack [G] of [C] conclusions.
[D]
[Em] [A]
[D] I was stolen, he was waxed so he could scream and still [Em] relax, unbelievable.
[A] And we frightened the [D] small children away.
[Em] [A] [D] [A] And [D] our talk was old and [G] dust would flow through our [D] veins and lo it [Em] was midnight back at the kitchen door.
Like the [A] grim face on [D] the cathedral floor.
[Em] The solid book we wrote [A] cannot be found [D] today.
[Em] And it was stocking time for the [D] moon [A] boys, the [Bm] Beaulieu brothers.
With [A] our backs on the arch, and [G] the devil may be here.
But you [F#] can't think of a bet, [A] when we were gone.
[G] Real cool traitor, we were [Bm] so [Em] turned on.
You thought we [C] were fakers.
[D]
[Em] [A]
[D] And now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned, the factor maxed, the proof of [Em] fact is melted down.
Woven [A] on the edging [D] of my pillow.
[Em]
[D] And my brother lays upon the rocks, he could be dead, he [A] could be [Em] not, he could be you.
[A] He's [Em] comedian, comedian, [D] Corinthian and caricature.
[Em] Shooting our pie [A] in the sky, [D] Beaulieu brothers.
[Em] In the feeble, in the bad, [A] [A]
[Bm] Beaulieu brothers.
[A] In the blessed and cold, [G] in the crutch hungry dark.
Was [F#] where we played our mark, on [A]
kings of [G]
oblivion.
We were [Bm] so [Em] turned on, in the main [C] wall pavilion.
[G] Lay me [C] place and make me lie, [F] I'm starving for [B] me gravy.
Leave my [F#m] shoes [C] and door unlocked, [F] I might just [Bm] slip away.
Hey, [F] just for the day.
Hey, please come [Bm] away.
