D A Bm A

[Verse]
G/B         A             D      
 The man in 119 takes his tea all 
  G
alone.
D         G            D         
 Mornings we all rise, to wireless 
  G
Verdi cries.
D            G                 A
 I'm hearing opera through the door.

G/B           A
 The souls of men and women,
D            G
 impassioned all.
D             G
 Their voices climb and fall;
D       G
 battle trumpets call.
D           G                A
 I fill the bath and climb inside,
singing

[Chorus]
D      G/B      A

but every day they bring him more.
D              G
 Gold from the breakfast tray,
D             G
 I steal them all away
D            G               A
 and then go eat them on the shore.

[Verse]
G/B       A             D       
 I draw a jackal-headed woman in
     G
 the sand
D          G
 sing of a lover’s fate
D          G
 sealed by jealous hate and
D                   G
wash my hand in the sea.
D         G
With just three days more I’d have
D          G           A
just about learned the entire score
   A
to Aida.

G      A            D           
 Ho-oh-olidays must end, as you 
G
know.
D       G
 All is memory,
D      G
 taken home with me:
    D          G
the opera, the stolen tea,
    D                 G
the sand drawing, the virgin sea, 
all
A
years ago.

[Chorus]
