My friends, my dear friends, and lovers, oh my lovers, I'd leave you for them.
They've got a hand on my back.
Mama's got money, now [D] Mama has friends.
She's making racks for some uptown [D] hags with her money in bags.
And why are you so sad?
Why are you always so sad?
Why do I not understand?
Why don't I see what it is you see?
Why can't I live and just be?
I'm full of guilt.
I am full of guilt.
You're very tall.
You're very handsome.
You have it all.
Your skin smells like manna.
You'll never know how I ache.
You will never know how I ache.
Don't touch that it breaks.
Ever considered the sea?
I heard you had to be strong.
Why not float along with me?
It won't take you so long.
You can go right now.
You can hang around with me.
A few good men might go where they [G] are, where they ought not [D] be.
And a few good mothers go for what [G] they, [D] what they ought not teach.
I long for a touch, a reminder of our spire.
[G]
But it must not be.
And a few strong branches [A] over [D] water reach for what they ought not reach.
I hope your mother knows where it is you have been.
I hope your mother knows what it is you have seen.
She'd be so proud.
