 Pale, pubescent beasts,  roam through the streets  and coffee-shops.
 Their prey  gather in herds,  of stiff knee-length skirts,
 And white ankle-socks.
 But while  they search for a mate,  my type hiber-nate,  in bedrooms a-bove,
 Com-posing  their songs of love.
 Young, uniform minds,  in uniform lines  and uniform ties.
 Run round,  with trousers on fire  and signs of de-sire  they cannot dis-guise.
 While I,  try to find words,  as light as the birds,  that circle a-bove,
 To put  in my songs of love.
 Fate doesn't hang  on a wrong,  or right choice.
 Fortune de-pends  on the tone,  of your voice.
 So sing  while, you have time,  let the sun shine,  down from a-bove;
 And fill  you with songs of love.
 Fate doesn't hang  on a wrong,  or right choice.
 Fortune de-pends  on the tone,  of your voice.
 So let's sing,  while we still can,  while the sun hangs,  high up a-bove.
 Wonderful songs  of lo...ove, beautiful songs of love.

[C] Pale, pubescent [F]beasts, roam through the [G]streets and coffee-[Am]shops.
Their [Dm7]prey gather in [F]herds, of stiff knee-length [Eb]skirts,
And white ankle-[C#]socks.
But [C]while they search for a [Am]mate, my type hiber-[G]nate, in bedrooms a-[Am]bove,
Com-[D7]posing their [F]songs [G]of [C]love.

[C] Young, uniform [F]minds, in uniform [G]lines and uniform [Am]ties.
Run [Dm7]round, with trousers on [F]fire and signs of de-[Eb]sire they cannot dis-[C#]guise.
While [C]I, try to find [F]words, as light as the [G]birds, that circle a-[Am]bove,
To [D7]put in my [F]songs [G]of [C]love.

[Ab] Fate doesn't [Bb]hang on a [C]wrong, or right [Am]choice.
[Ab] Fortune de-[Bb]pends on the [C]tone, of your [G]voice.

So [C]sing while, you have [F]time, let the sun [G]shine, down from a-[Am]bove;
And [D7]fill you with [F]songs [G]of [C]love.

So let's [C]sing, while we still [F]can, while the sun [G]hangs, high up a-[Am]bove.
[D] Wonderful [F]songs of [Am]lo...[C]ove, [D7]beautiful [F]songs [G]of [C]love.
