[C] [E]
I see [C] a lot of peace signs at our [G] gigs these days.
I just wonder whether [A] or not they're just empty gestures.

I was loving when my angel brought me [Am] this.
And she's with [Ab] a bundle of [C] flour.
And tiny little stem of a marshmallow.
Who's that gonna be somebody?
He's a real star.
Who the hell [Em] is that?
I wish I was blue.
[F] But my shadow is [Ab] a fossil in purple.
[C]
Who's that?
[E] It's a man of ice.
[Am] Strutting down the [Ab] streets and dancing high.
[C] He keeps picking out all my letters.
[Am] His face is [Ab] full of love.
[C]
I'm looking around [E] for that boy.
[F] I'm gonna tell him if [Ab] he tries I'll prove him [C] wrong.

[E] Because my [A] shadow's a piece [E] of baby.
They want me all [Am] the better.
I'm laughing at my jazzy [Fm] way.
Paria want to hear [C] their shout.
[G] Set out by the wind.
