[Verse]
C * Em *
I've got a copy, of catcher in the rye
Am * F *
in my top pocket, I think you know why.
C * Em *
Order me something, from the dusty top shelf
AmF
I can't keep my secrets in, nor my hand to myself.
[Chorus]
CFEm *
So we put on those old records,
CFAm *
drank spirits with my friends.
CEm
But not long ago, I could never know,
FCEmAm
like you'd turn a page, someone could go.
[Verse]
C * Em *
Our Lady of Sorrows, please take my hand.
Am * F
That was a hard year, even if I'd been an older man.
C * Em *
She said you're 23 now, you know Keats went at 25.
AmF
You've only got ten more years, 'till Christ was crucified.
[Chorus]
CFEm *
So we put on those old records,
CFAm *
drank spirits with my friends.

But not long ago, I could never know,

In our concrete walls, a sweet perfume,
FCGAm
that the lilies made as they fill the room.
