Wrapping Paper by Cream
|                       C|G+                      |
  Wrapping paper          in the gutter
|           C  G+          |                      C9|          
  Moving    slowly        as the wind on the 
|                       F|                     Bb9|
 sea, (Faces calling,     waves moving)
|           C/          B|                      A7|
 In your picture on a     wall of a house of old 
|                      D7|             G7  
 times.(Can you hear me) Can you hear me (Can you hear me) Wandering 
|           C             F|             C          G7|
 sadly?
In the city, feeling pretty,
Down and out and making love to you on the 
shore, (Ruined buildings, faces empty)
In the picture as I gaze ahead and don't 
see (That they're calling) That they're calling. (That they're calling) Wandering sadly.
|                       C|G+                      |
|           C  G+          |                      C9|          
|                       F|                     Bb9|
    Shattered windows,    stairs to nowhere.
|           C/          B|                      A7|
|                      D7|                      G7|
(Hear you calling)       Hear you calling (Hear you calling) As I wander so 
|           C             F|             C          G7|
sadly.
|                      F|                       Bb|
   Wish I knew what        you'd done to me;
|           C/         G|        C  G/A/Bb(C7)      |     
   Turned me on   to     things I never knew.
|                      F|                       Bb|
   It's all broken,      weeds are growing.
|           C/          B|                      A7|
   Wish I     was going    home to the house by the 
|                      D7|                      G7|
shore (Where you loved me) Where you loved me, (Where you loved me) Loved me 
|           C             F|             C          G7|
so sadly.
Someday I'll get back, somehow I'll do it.
I'll arrive there and you'll be there to meet me.
(Walk together, tread the weeds down)
Kiss again in the picture on the wall
(Where I loved you) In the old house.
(Where I loved you) Loved you so well.
