[Intro 1]
[Gsus2][A5][Asus2][Bm][Gsus2][Asus2][F#m]
[Bm][Gsus2]
I just wanted to be [D]so much

[Verse 1]
[Asus2]
better than me
But I [Bm]lost the talisman
[F#m]so I c[Bm]ould [Gsus2]not be free

[Verse 2]
And the [Gsus2]ladies they wa[D]tch
[Em]as I [Asus2]sneer through my scarves
[F#m]And I smirk mischievously
And [Gsus2]ima gine they had the hearts

[Verse 3]
Then I got up and left
[D]And I [Asus2]turned a corner right
Though I [F#m]could not keep my rent
There were [Gsus2]shad ows in my sights
As I shuffle through the dark [D]I was a

[Verse 4]
[Em]
heading [Asus2]to the park
But I [F#m]did not become afraid
When I [D]heard he dogs [Gsus2]starts to bark

[Verse 5]
It [Gsus2]might have been cold or warm
[D]But I [Asus2]did not s[Bm]eem to c[Asus2]are
I was [F#m]waving my arms
[Bm]in t[D]he aeromatic air

[Verse 6]
Then I fell to the [Gsus2]ground
[D]But I [Asus2]heard a million sounds
There were [Bm]whistles[F#m]
there were bells
There were [D]screams and exploding shells
I [Gsus2]found

[Verse 7]
teeth marks in my thigh
[D]And [Bm]I star[Asus2] ted to cry
no longer [Bm]wanted [F#m]to try
[Bm]But I [F#m]did no[D]t ask wh[Gsus2]y

[Verse 8]
Then your hollow, hollow face
Was [Bm]emerging [Asus2]from the willow trees
[Bm]Though I could [F#m]not see your eyes
I contin[G]ued to gaze [Gsus2]with ease
And [D]away my

[Verse 9]
[Gsus2]si lent lover
You're [D]just [Em]changing [A5]with [Asus2]the grass
Oh [F#m]so slowly you float
[Bm]Oh so so [D]gracefully you pass

[Verse 10]
And [D]I do not [Gsus2]see you s[D]mile
You don't [Em]talk, you don't [Asus2]laugh
You're [Bm]the Shep[F#m] ard
of my sheep
[Bm]The keeper [D]of my golden calf

[Verse 11]
[D]And your love is truly true
Mysteri[Bm]ous, [Em]hand[Bm]some [Em]too[Asus2]
In [F#m]the wind and in the rain
Never [D]had to be pursued

[Verse 12]
When I'm cold and [D]in the gutter
I simply [Em]shut my eyes so tight
Sitting [F#m]warm it makes me shudder
And [D]I soon feel alright

[Verse 13]
And [D]away my silent lover
One [Em]day will shall be together
There will re[F#m]main no contemplation
No [D]more schemes or endeavors

[Verse 14]
[D]When my heart disintegrates
And my [Em]voice is no more
[Asus2]We'll ete[Em]rn al[F#m]ly be mates
From the hori[D]zon to the shore

[Verse 15]
But for now [D]it's all nostalgia
You're [Am]a cin[Em]emat[Asus2]ic spector
Cast your [F#m]image from the blinds
By [D]the glow of the old projector
And [D]away

[Verse 16]
my silent lov[Em]er[Am]
[Em]And [F#m]away my silent lover
