Standard (EADGBE)

Stay, oh oh oh stay (x2)

Solomon dives for that big dusky pearl

Solomon sighs, he knows he's older than me

Sleeps with the fishes soon

Stay (stay), oh oh oh stay (x2)

Solomon crawls on the belly of God

Solomon falls on his face in love with me.

He grows as old as the sea

Deep where the fishes are.

Stay, oh oh oh stay (x4)

He lives in the yard, he keeps himself hard

He keeps himself homeless and heartless and hard

He sleeps on the stairs along with the heirs

Of nothing and nothing means no one who cares

But I love him dear and I love him dear

And I've loved him hundreads of thousands of years.

Stay. Stay (stay with me) oh oh oh stay.

Stay. Stay (stay with me) oh oh oh stay.

It's not time for me to go. (x3)

Stay.
