Dm G C F

Sarah wrote epistles on the subject of despair

Dm G C F

on the night last year when there was no love in the air.

Dm G C F

Listen friend she wrote, and I heard her pen cry before it broke.

Dm G C G F

Who are we and why, oh why can't we behave?

Dm G C

We are good people, aren't we? Do you know?

Dm G C F

Jon-jon had surprising eyes and narrow black suede shows,

Dm G C F

a war to fight in Paris and a sister with the blues.

Dm G C F

Puisque ton papa est en voyage you heard your mother making

Dm G C G F

love is not what we are Jon-jon, you and I

Dm G C

are rats at cupids table and we're fine.

Dm G C F

In the darkest corner of a downstairs gathering

Dm G C F

ladybirds and pirate cowboys, made up, conversing.

Dm G C F

Islands sinking from musicians, bedtime stories, York Magicians,

Dm G C G F

but you don't have to worry darling, frozen hearts leave

Dm G C

seethrough scarring, and no one else will know unless you tell.

Dm G C F

Drink to ghosts of past years' catastrophic love affairs,

Dm G C F

to robes of red and silver tales worn thin from too much care.

Dm G C F

Comfort doesn't always come in glasses, but perhaps tonight

Dm G C G F

I won't be the only one with blue headlights.

Dm G C

Come on ladies, take your love to town.

Dm G C

Pick it up boys, take your love to town.

Dm G C

Everybody, take your love to town.
