Verse 1
[Am] [Em] [F] [G]
[Em]Books and [Bm]covers and [C]part time [G]lovers[G/F#]
[Em]spinning [Bm]rooms [C]in cities of[C/B] rust
[Em]I'm stranded, [Bm]struck[C] out on this[G] [G/F#]line
[Em]of smoke and fire and [Bm]steel and wire
and [C]glass and spire and [C/B]dust
[Em]on [D/F#]to the [C]floor at dawn[Em] with [D/F#]lips taught[C] and drawn
[Em]sleepless [D/F#]nights I've [C]spent with[Em] angels [D/F#]heaven [C]sent
[G]Stay with me, [F]lay with me, [Em]lay down by my side
[G]stay with me, [F]lay with me, [Em]take me deep inside
[G]lay with me, [Dm]stay with me, [Em]lay with me, [F]stay [C]with [G]me
[F]stay [C]with [G]me
[Am] [Em] [F] [G]
[Em]Born of the [Bm]sign of [C]air and the [G]twins[G/F#]
[Em]speak of [Bm]days and [C]another [C/B]place
[Em]I wander as the [Bm]gypsy [C]under a beckoning [G]moon[G/F#]
[Em]speak of [Bm]time and[C] another [C/B]face
[Em]a wayward and[D/F#] languid cry[C] a [Em]fleeting and [D/F#]furtive [C]sigh
[Em]from the [D/F#]cradle to the[C] grave [Em]a love to [D/F#]desire and [C]crave
I'll laugh for you, and I'll dance for you
but don't ask me to shed any tears when I have to go
you are a joy and a pleasure to love and to hold
your promise is as pure as the driven snow
passing ships in the night a touch distraught and light
eyes that brightly shine, your love tonight is mine
