[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A Bm
I lit a thin green candle
D A
To make you jealous of me.
A Bm
The room filled up with mosquitos
D E
They heard that my body was free
F#m C#m
And I took the dust of a long sleepless night
D A
And I put it in your little shoe
Bm G
And I must confess that I tortured the dress
Bm A G A
That you wore for the world to look through.
[Verse 2]
A Bm
And I showed my heart to the doctor
D A
He said, “You just have to quit”
A Bm
Then he wrote himself a prescription
D E
And your name was mentioned in it
F#m C#m
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
D A
With the details of our honeymoon
Bm G
And I hear from the nurse that he’s gotten much worse
Bm A G A
And his practice is all in a ruin.
[Verse 3]
A Bm
I once knew a saint who had loved you
D A
I studied all night in his school
A Bm
He taught that the duty of lovers
D E
Was to tarnish the golden rule.
F#m C#m
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
D A
He drowned himself in the pool
Bm G
His body is gone, but out here on the lawn
Bm A G A
His spirit continues to drool.
[Verse 4]
A Bm
An Eskimo showed me a movie
D A
He’d recently taken of you
A Bm
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
D E
His lips and his fingers were blue
F#m C#m
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
D A
And I guess he just never got warm
Bm G
But you stand there so nice, in your blizzard of ice
Bm A G A
Please let me come into your storm.
[Outro]
A Bm D A
