[Bb] I watched the host drink all the [Fm] wine and now [C] she rambles through the hoops and who [Dm] has not.
[Bb] The old man is a painter of tired [F] seascapes, tidal [Bb] adventures, oh my [C] my wonders, picking
at the table to cure [Dm] the wrong.
Like a [Bb] bird in a world of no trees, you were hung [Fm] up there in your disbelief.
I know [C] I'm a hard rock to drag [Dm] around.
[D] [Dm]
Love is in the [F] early mornings [Dm] and the shadows under [C] the trees.
Starting [Gm] to cook [Dm] on loaded [G] ashes, [F] slow to down from the ruck of [C] rest.
Down [Bb] here I'll crow for [F] you, you crow for [C] me.
Down [Bb] here I'll crow for [F] you, you crow [C] for me.
[Bb] Toe in the line, I watched the [F] host drink all the wine and now [C] I'm purring for a drop of [Dm] anything.
Throwing [Bb] stones at your window, you tell [F] me, is it sinful?
Why [C] can't you be like the blackbird [Dm] and sing?
I say [Bb] I'm the west of these and Ireland so [F] decadent and violent, can't you [C] see I'm a forger?
Crawling [Dm] at the bedrock.
