[Verse 1]
All the [D]men she wanted,
all her life was [E]hanging by a thread
I nev[Em]er even knew
[A]how much I wan[G]ted you, she sai[D]d
His muscles, they were numb,
but his [Bm]style [E]was obsolete
Oh [Em]baby, I have [A]come too late,
she [G]knelt beside his [D]feet
[Bm]I'll [D]never see a face like yours
in [E]years of men to come
I'll [Em]never see such [D]arms again
[A]in wre[G]stling or in lov[D]e
[Bm]And [D]all his virtues burning in
the [E]smoky holocaust
She [Em]took unto herself
[A]most eve[G]rything her lover los[D]t
Now the [Bm]master of this landscape,
he was standing at the mew
With the [Em]sparrow of St. Francis
that he was preaching to
She [F#m]beckoned to the sentry
of his high religious mood
She said, I'll [Em]make a place
[Eb]between my legs,
I'll [D]give you [A]solitude
He [D]offered her an orgy
in [Bm]a min[E]i mirrored room
He [Em]promised her protection
[A]for the iss[G]ue of her wou[D]nd
She moved her body hard
against the [E]sharpened metal spoon
She [Em]stopped the bloody [A]rituals
of pas[G]sage to the [D]moon
She took his much -admired
Orient[E]al frame of mind
And the [Em]heart of darkness
hal[A]lowed by his [G]muddy eyes be[D]hind
She [Bm]took [D]his blonde Madonna
an[Bm]d his mo[E]nastery wine
This [Em]men tal space is oc[A]cupied
and [G]everything is [D]mine
[Bm]He t[D]ried to make a final stand
[E]behind the railway track
She said the [Em]art of longing's [A]over
and it's [G]never coming [D]back
She took his tavern parliament,
his [E]cap and cocky dance
She [Em]mocked his female fash[A]ions
and his work[G]ing class mous[D]tache
And the [Bm]last time that I saw him,
he was trying hard to get
[B]A wom[Em]an's education,
but he's not a woman yet
And the [F#m]last time that I saw her,
she was living with some boy
Who [Em]gives her soul an [Eb]empty room
and [D]gives her body [A]joy
[D]So the great affair is over
but [E]whoever would have guessed
It [Em]would leave us all so va[A]cant
and so [G]deeply [D]unimpressed
It's like our visit to the moon
or [E]to that other star
I [Em]guess you'd go for noth[A]ing
If you [G]really wanna go that far
