Finestere

A                                 
Come and watch the sunset with me 
                      D
from Finistère
A                                 
A sentimental moment with me, that
                      D
 we can share
Bm                          
Forget the faces of forgotten 
         A          E7    D
children, Oh, how they cried
Bm                          
They cannot forgive forgetful 
         A          E7    D
Fathers, Oh, how they lied
                            A
And now they try to run away

A                                 
You listen to your Walkman, on the
                      D
 back seat of the bus
A                             
You feel yourself evaporate, In 
                          D
un-selfconciousness
Bm                          
The wounded animal sat by the 
                 A         E7     
roadside, Oh, "how" he cried
       D

Continues after the ad
Bm                             
Did the peaceful pastures become 
                A          E7    D
minefields, Oh, "woe" he cried
                              A
For now he cannot run away

Dm         A7                 C 
Oh, run away, From the half 
                         Dm
digested bitterness you feel
Dm         A7                 C 
Oh, "how can you stay? Says the 
                         Dm
unexpected innocence you keep
              C                 
And how long does that innocence 
         Dm
keep
F                               G
You from drying up, drying out

A                                 
The days when I was bullet proof 
                                  D
and nightly full of holes
A                                 
Is deep and strong as cellophane 
                      D
in a galaxy of souls
Bm                          
The father to so many needs a 
            A          E7    D
mother, Oh, how she cried
Bm                            
Does the Father's Mother need a 
          A         E7    D
lover, Oh, "yes, please!" she cried
D                        A 
I know I'll never run away,
(E7/D)   A
 Finistère
D                   A (E7/D)   A
I can't run no more, Finistère
D                   A
I can’t run no more    (fade..)
