I remember a girl [Cm] so very [Eb] well
[Gm] The carnival drums, [F] oh, mad in [Gb] the air
[Gm] Grim reapers and skeletons [Cm] and a missionary bell
[Bb] Oh, where do we go now [F] but nowhere
[Gm] In a colonial hotel, [Cm] we fucked up the [Gm] sun
And then we fucked [F] it down again
[Gm] Well, the sun comes up, [Cm] the sun goes down
[Bb] Going round and around [F]
the way
[Gm] A kitten that patted [Cm] and purred on my lap
[Gm] Now swipes at my face [F] with the paw of a bear
[Gm] I turn the other cheek [C] and you lay into that
[Bb] Oh, where do we go [F] now but
[Eb] Oh, wake up my love, my [F] lover, wake up
[C] Oh, [Eb] wake up my love, my [F] lover, wake up
[Gb] [Gm] Across clinical [Cm] benches, nothing to talk
[Gm] Breathe in tea and biscuits [F] and the serenity prayer
[Gm] While the bones of our child [Cm] crumble like [Bb] chalk
Oh, where do we go [F] now but nowhere
[Gm] I remember a girl [Cm] so bold and so [Gm] bright
A little slim and laughing [F] and brazen and bare
[Gm] Said snoring her knuckles [Cm] in the chemical light
[Bb] Oh, where do we go [F] now but nowhere
[Gm] You come for me now [Cm] with a cake that you've made
[Gm]
Ravaged avenger [F] with a clip in your hair
[Gm] Full of glass and bleach [Cm] and my old razor blaze
[Bb] Oh, where do we go now [F] but nowhere
Oh, [Eb] wake up my love, my lover, [F] wake up
Oh, [Eb] wake up my love, my lover, [F] wake up
[Gb]
[D] If [Gm] they'd give me my clothes back
[G] Then I [Cm] could go home [Gm] from this fresh, this clean
[F]
[D] Antiseptic air [Gm] behind the locked gates
[Cm] And old donkey [Bb] moans
Where do we go now [F] but nowhere
[Gm] Around the duck pond, [Cm] we grimly [Gm] moan
Gloomily and mournfully, [F] we go round again
[Gm] And one more doomed [Cm] time and without much hope
[Bb] Going round and around [F] to nowhere
[Gm] From the balcony, we watched [Cm] the carnival band
[Gm] The crack of a drum, [F] a little child did scare
[G] I can still feel his [Cm] fingers pressed in my hand
[Bb] Oh, where do we go [F] now but nowhere
[Gm] If I could relive [Cm] one day of my life
[Gm] If I could relive [F] just a single one
[Gm] You on the balcony, [Cm]
my future [Bb] wife
Oh, who could have known [F] but no one
[Eb] Oh, wake up [Bb] my love, my [F] lover, wake [C] [Eb] up
Oh, wake up my love, my [F] lover, wake up
[Eb] Oh, wake up my love, [F] my lover, wake [C] up
[Eb] Oh, wake up my love, my [E] lover, wake up
[C] [F]
