D-DU-UDU
A room sometimes is a body with the loneliest view
and porch lights grow dim with every onsetting hour
and the stars seem so finite to you
but love it ain't like the chemicals, babe
cuz the chemicals don't hang around
everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth
losing years on the way down
losing years on the way down
A melody can be exhausted babe, short of friend and fame
cuz the birds they don't sing in the winter short of spring
and even then they only sing in the day
but love it ain't like a melody babe cuz the birds don't hang around
everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth
but sometimes in these fountains they drown
sometimes in these fountains they drown
But I wanna love you when the blood of my veins don't know how to
call out your name, yeah I wanna love you when the birds don't hang around
Solo over verse chords
but love it ain't like the chemicals, babe
cuz the chemicals don't hang around
everybody's drilling for a fountain of youth
but sometimes in these fountains they drown
For the Bb6, play the chord in the intro to "Over the Hills and Far Away".
That may not be what John Mark is playing, but he's just progressing down
from C back to G, and that's a cool sounding chord.
