Bad Wine And Lemon Cake

G            Bm
I have a little house
Em       D               G       
Close to town but not to the city
 Bm    Em

         D                 G      
Far from home but near my family
Bm    Em

         D                  G      
No water views but so close to the 
Bm
sea
  Em            D            G   
I see this is how my little life 
       Bm     Em  D
could be
                G             Bm  
And I'm filling it with things
   Em

          D           G        Bm
Like furniture I find on the 
      Em
street
             D                 G  
And all the special things I'd 
      Bm    Em
like to eat
            D               G     
Pictures of people that I'd like 
  Bm          Em
to meet I'll meet them
           D            Em
While I'm orbiting the world
              D              Em   
And it's so pretty and so lonely
  D

           G      Bm  Em    
My lovely love affairs are all 
     D                  G   Bm   
scheduled 'round the TV guide
   Em

           D                
And my sex life has all been 
  G     Bm      Em
plagiarized
       D                 G  
In an attempt to meet a harsh 
      Bm    Em   D
deadline
            G          Bm   Em
I'd like to rent a wife
Continues after the ad
             D               G    
Then rent a husband to keep her 
      Bm  Em
for life
             D               G    
The three of us we could be so 
   Bm
happy
Em              D               
Them with each other me with 
G   Bm
company
      Em               D          
I'll see them off on a flight 
         Em
around the world
             D              Em   D
And it's so pretty and so lonely
             Em                D
I could just die I might just die
             Em                D
I could just die I might just die
          G      Bm    Em
And at my funeral
               D              G   
They will say Tom he was such a 
     Bm   Em
nice guy
             D            G    
He went too early but he went in 
    Bm       Em
style
                 D              G 
They'll play my music and then 
       Bm     Em
they will cry
D                    G         
Then they'll have a little wake
Bm      Em

                  D                
They'll drink bad wine and they'll 
     G        Bm    Em
eat lemon cake
        D               G       
And my mother's little heart will 
   Bm     Em
break
                D                
And she'll say Wait there must be 
       G         Bm
must some mistake
    Em        D       G      Bm 
He can't be dead take me instead
     Em

D               Em
Oh but I'm not dead
                      D
They tell me I'm not dead
                          Em
And they say that I'm not dead
                 D
And that I won't die for some time
      G           Bm  Em
In my little house
              D              G    
Just writing little songs to pass 
      Bm    Em
the time
           D                G     
Which incidentally is seven forty 
     Bm    Em
nine
              D          G        
So don't you worry I'm completely 
  Bm      Em
fine I'm fine
             D           G        
And don't you worry I'm completely
  Bm       Em
 fine I'm fine
           D          G          
Don't you worry I'm completely 
Bm       Em
fine I'm fine
          D          G           
Don't you worry I'm completely 
Bm       Em
fine I'm fine
            D        G          
Don't you worry I'm completely 
Bm         Em

    D               G
