Separations
(Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Steve Mackey, Russell Senior, Candida Doyle)
Intro :  A   G  Dm  
A Gm throughout the whole song
AAs the sun Gmshines down on the land
So her Aheart is cryiGmng for love
But thAere is no-one there
No-Gmone to hear her voice
And shAe will Gmsleep alone again tonight
NAow the Gmmoon is high in the sky
In her Aroom, she cGmalls out his name
But Ahe is somewhere else
SomewheGmre she cannot see
Oh aAnd the night is dark between them now
My GmGod, my God, why did he go away?
A Gm A Gm
NAow the Gmsun shines on a new town
With a Asmile, he Gmgets off the train
He liAghts a cigarette
Leans bGmack to see the sky
Oh, Aand he thinks how much better off he is
withGmout her hanging round
(Let's do it now.)
Whistle Riff
e -------------------------------------|
B ---6-5---5-6-5-6-5-5-3---3-5-3-5-3---|
The day is passing by him
And he has nowhere to stay
At a lonely bar-room table
His mind goes back to yesterday
To the girl who's dead and buried
But her face lives in his eyes
He must forget that face forever,
Make the future start tonight
(Again.)
But the meal he eats is dead flesh
There is cancer in his cigarettes
And the drinks won't do a thing for him
But revive some stupid memories
Then a hairstyle that reminds him
Makes him run into the night
Where the moon hangs high above him now
The same moon that she's praying on tonight
But the wind catches her words
And the moon swallows them whole...
Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room she calls out his name
The night is cold and dark
And she is all alone
The bed is empty now
Her body screams for love
She wants to be with him
Oh, but he's so far away
Oh, and the night is dark between them now
My God, my God, why did he go away?

Separations

(Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Steve Mackey, Russell Senior, Candida Doyle)

A G Dm

Intro :

A Gm throughout the whole song

A Gm

As the sun shines down on the land

A Gm

So her heart is crying for love

But there is no-one there

No-one to hear her voice

A Gm

And she will sleep alone again tonight

A Gm

Now the moon is high in the sky

A Gm

In her room, she calls out his name

But he is somewhere else

Somewhere she cannot see

Oh and the night is dark between them now

My God, my God, why did he go away?

A Gm A Gm

A Gm

Now the sun shines on a new town

A Gm

With a smile, he gets off the train

He lights a cigarette

Leans back to see the sky

Oh, and he thinks how much better off he is

without her hanging round

(Let's do it now.)

The day is passing by him

And he has nowhere to stay

At a lonely bar-room table

His mind goes back to yesterday

To the girl who's dead and buried

But her face lives in his eyes

He must forget that face forever,

And she is all alone

The bed is empty now

Her body screams for love

She wants to be with him
