Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

please remember me, happily by the rosebush laughing

with bruises on my chin, the time when, we counted every black car

passing

your house beneath the hill, and up until, someone caught us in the kitchen

With maps, a mountain range, a piggy bank, a vision too removed to

mention

But please remember me, fondly, I heard from someone you’re still

pretty

And then, they went on to say That the pearly gates, has some

eloquent graffiti

Like, we’ll, meet again, and fuck the man And tell my mother not to

worry

And angels with a great, handshake And all is done in such a hurry

And please remember me, at Halloween, Making fools of all the

neighbors

Are faces painted white, by midnight, We forgotten one another

And when The morning came, I was ashamed Only now it seems so silly,

That season Left the world and then returned And now your lit up by the City

So, Please, remember me, Mistakenly In the window of the tallest

tower call, Then pass us by, But much too high, To see the empty road at

Happy hour

Leave, and resonate, Just like the gates, Around the holy kingdom

With words like 'Lost and Found' and 'Don't Look Down' And

'Someone Save Temptation'

And Please, remember me As in the dream, We had as rug-burned

babies

Among the fallen trees And fast asleep Aside the lions and the ladies

That called, you what you like, And even might, Give a gift for your

behavior

A fleeting chance to see, A trapeze Swing as high as any savior

But Please, remember me, My misery, And how it lost me all I wanted

Those dogs, that love the rain, And chasing trains

The colored birds above there running

In circles round the well, And where it spells

On the wall behind St. Peter's So bright with

With cinder gray, And spray paint 'Who the hell can see forever?'

And Please, remember me, Seldomly, In the car behind the carnival

My hand between your knees, You turn from me

And said 'The trapeze act was wonderful

But never meant to last', The clown that passed,

Saw me just come up with anger

When it filled, with circus dogs, The parking lot, Had an element of danger

So Please, remember me, Finally, And all my uphill clawing

My dear But if I make The pearly Gates

Do my best to make a drawing Of God, and Lucifer

A boy and girl An angel kissing on a sinner,

A monkey and a man A marching band All around the frightened trapeze swingers

Na-na Na-na-na Na-na Na-na...
