Really don't mind if you sit this one out.

   D            Am             G6         D   Dmaj7 G6  D Dmaj7 G6
My words but a whisper -- your deafness a SHOUT.

  D            Am         G6             D   Dmaj7 G6  D Dmaj7 G6
I may make you feel but I can't make you think.

     D              Am             G6            D   Dmaj7 G6     D Dmaj7 G6
Your sperm's in the gutter -- your love's in the sink.

       G6              Asus2    D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D
So you ride yourselves over the fields

        G6            Asus2  D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D
and you make all your animal deals

         G6             Asus2       D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D
and your wise men don't know how it feels

      A          D Dmaj7 G6      D Dmaj7 G6      D Dmaj7 G6      D Dmaj7 G6
to be thick as a brick.

        D           Am          G6        D Dmaj7 G6    D Dmaj7 G6
And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away

       D        Am
in the tidal destruction

    G6      D Dmaj7 G6    D Dmaj7 G6
the moral melee.

     D        Am              G6       D Dmaj7 G6    D Dmaj7 G6
The elastic retreat rings the close of play

       D           Am
as the last wave uncovers

    G6         D Dmaj7 G6    D Dmaj7 G6
the newfangled way.

         G6            Asus2       D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D
But your new shoes are worn at the heels

     G6          Asus2   D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D
and your suntan does rapidly peel

         G6             Asus2       D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

And the love that I feel        is so far away:

                       Bm         D   F#   G
I'm a bad dream that I just had today --

                   A Asus2 A
and you shake your head

    A          D  Dmaj7 G6     D Dmaj7 G6
and say it's a shame.

       Spin me back down the years

and the days         of my youth.

Dm7 Dm9          Dm11     Dm7   Dm9     Dm11
        Draw the lace and black curtains

         Dm7 Dm9 Dm11      Dm7   Dm9    Dm11
and shut out           the whole truth.

    Spin me down the long ages: let them sing the song.

The Poet and the painter casting shadows on the water --

as the sun plays on the infantry returning from the sea.

The do-er and the thinker: no allowance for the other --

as the failing light illuminates the mercenary's creed.

The home fire burning: the kettle almost boiling --

        D             C             Asus2  B
but the master of the house is far away.

    Em                 D     Em
The horses stamping -- their warm breath clouding

in the sharp and frosty morning of the day.
