Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Bm][C][D][G][C][D][G][C][D][C]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
A dreaded sunny day [G]so
I meet you at the cemetry [C]gates
Keats and [D]Yeats are on your [Em]side[C][G]
A dreaded sunny day so I meet
you at the cemetry [C]gates
Keats and [D]Yeats are on your [Em]side[C]
while [D]Wilde [G]is on mine

[Verse 2]
So we go inside [G]and we
gravely read [C]the stones
All those people, all those [D]lives,
where are [Em]they now?[C]
With [G]loves and hates and passions
just like [C]mine
They were born and then they
[D]lived and then they [Em]died
[C]Seems so [D]unfair, I want [G]to cry

[Verse 3]
You say, [Bm]"Ere thrice the sun hath done
saluta[D]tion [G]to the dawn"
And you [Bm]claim these words as your [G]own
But [C]I've read well and I've
[D]heard them said
A hundred [Em]times, maybe less,
maybe [F]more

[Verse 4]
If you [G]must write prose or poems
The words you use should be your [C]own
Don't plagiarise or [D]take [Em]on loan
[C]There's always som[G]eone, somewhere
With a big nose who [C]knows
And who trips you up and
[D]laughs when [Em]you fall
[C]Who'll trip you up and
[D]laugh when [G]you fall

[Verse 5]
You say, [Bm]"Ere long done
do [D]does [G]did"
[Bm]Words which could only [D]be [G]your own
And [C]then produce the text from
[D]whence was ripped
Some dizzy [Em]whore, [F]1804

[Verse 6]
A dreaded [G]sunny day so let's
go where we're happy
And I meet you at the cemetry gates
[C]Oh, Keats and Yea[D]ts are
on your [Em]side[C]
A dreaded [G]sunny day so let's
go where we're wanted
And I meet you at the cemetry [C]gates
Keats and [D]Yeats are on [Em]your side,
but you [C]lose
'Cause weird lover [D]Wilde is [G]on mine

[Outro 1]
(Sure)
