[G]Badadadadadadada[Em]dum [G]badadadadadadada [Em]da da da-adum
[G]I have been stripped of a [Em]layer of meaning
I [G]fell through the floor, watched you [Em]rise through the ceiling
She's [C]so high, higher than thought can think
A [C]mere sprite, like one of the nubilate, so [D]hold tight
She [C]radiates light from her [C]jokes, it's what men prefer
[D]They need the centre of [G]things    [D]
The centre of [G]things   [D]
[G]I watched them packing up [Em]all Sunday morning
The [G]day of the fourth and they [Em]fled without warning
It's [C]so bright, the sun almost burns your eyes
A [C]cruel fight, I feel I can sympathise [D]famine
It [C]pours over boiling words, [C]it's more than we deserve
[D]Love is a beautiful [G]curse    [D]
A beautiful [G]curse    [D]
[G]Badadadadadadada[Em]dum [G]badadadadadadada [Em]da da da-adum
[C]She said "I'm stained like a girl from the [C]bowrie"
I pay my respects to her [G]hourly

I'm just so clumsy and circumspect, never know what it meant
Perhaps it was [G]heaven sent
She's [C]so high, this kitten on gasoline
And [C]codeine, fuelled by her medicine
She [D]lies back
[C]"Handsome" she says again [C]"You've always been my friend
[D]Lord, it's the loveliest [G]day   [D]
The loveliest [G]day"   [D]

[G]I have been stripped of a [Em]layer of meaning
I [G]fell through the floor, watched you [Em]fly through the ceiling
And [C]I find, you're finer than porcelain
Or [C]bromide on silver gelatin in [D]blue sky
She's [C]carried by seraphim, [C]aptly named vallium
[D]Into the arms of the [G]night   [D]
The arms of the [D]night
[G]Badadadadadadada[Em]dum [G]badadadadadadada [Em]da da da-adum
[G]Badadadadadadada[Em]dum [G]badadadadadadada [Em]da da da da-a[G]dum
