Capo 3rd fret
INTRO - C (with some suspended 4ths thrown in)
C F9
Pale, pubescent beasts roam through the
G Am7
streets and coffee-shops
Dm7 F
Their pray gather in herds of stiff knee-length
Eb9 Db9
skirts and white ankle-socks
C F9
But while they search for a mate my type hiber-
G Am7
nate in bedrooms above
D7 F9 F/G C
Composing their songs of love
{as verse 1}
Young, uniform minds in uniform
lines and uniform ties
Run round with trousers on fire and signs of
desire they cannot disguise
While I try to find words as light as the
birds that circle above
To put in my songs of love
Ab Fm6 C Am7
Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice
Ab Fm6 C/G G
Fortune depends on the tone of your voice
C F9
So sing while you have time
G Am7
Let the sun shine down from above
D7 F9 F/G C
And fill you with songs of love
{INSTRUMENTAL - based on verse}
{As above}
Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice
Fortune depends on the tone of your voice
So let's sing while we still can
While the sun hangs high up above
D7 F9 F/G Am Am/G
Wonderful songs of love
D7/F# F9 F/G C
Beautiful songs of love
