[B] [C#] I [G#m] wait [F#] [D#] at the [B] table
[F#] And hold [G#m] hands with [D#] weeping [B] strangers
[E] And wait for [A#] you to [G#] jointly [D#] groom
[B] The [G#m] [F#]
[B] tambourine, [D#] jingle, [B] jangle
The [F#] medium [G#m] [D#] moans and [B] rambles, now tickling
[A#m]
[F#] [G#] I break the [D#m] circle
[E] I [F] want this [C#] [F#m] man to [G#m] go away now
[B] With a [D#m] kiss [C#] I pass [B] the key
And feel your [F#] [G#] tongue teasing [C#] and receiving
[B] With your [F#] spit, skip from [G#m] my lips
We hit the [F#m] water
[D] [A] [G#] [F]
[G#] [F#m] [D] [G#]
[C#m] [C#] [F] [F#m]
[Bm] [A] Him [C#]
[E] [D] [B] [F#] and I in the [G#m] room
To [D#] prove you are [D#m] with us too
[C#] He's using [B] code that [D#] only you and [B] I know
This is no [A#m] trick of his
[G#m] This is [D#] your magic
[B] I'd catch the [F#] cues watching you
Hoping [G] you'd do something [B] [G#m] wrong
[D#] [B] [A#m]
[D#m] You're a scared Roosevelt, [E] believe me
[Fm] Not [C#] even [F#m] eternity can hold [G#m] you dearly
Roosevelt, [B] believe me
Through [F#] the [G#m] glass
[D#m] [C#] I'd watch [B] you breathe
[F#] Bound and [G#m] drowned in pain
And [C#] then you'd better [B] be
With me [A#m] alive
The only thing in [G#] my mind
Are [Bm] you [F#m]
