Bruno, what did you tell that man?

Am4 Dm aug4

He's a clever man, did you know? I bet he works for the government.

And I know you know I know I can't control

  aug4

Thoughts of things I need, and I believe everybody needs some encouragement.

 I think it's real unfair that you should put him there

 All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear

 Where did you find his shoes? A lAm4ock of my hair?

All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear

Some dull morning, we were wearing sheets,

Am4 Dm aug4

and you whispered, "I think that they know better than me."

See this hand that pushed you into the creek?

Am4 Dm aug4

I'm sorry, was just fun, and you were laughing,

 we ran right into the street.

 And I wrote my name into the fresh-painted yellow line,

  Am4 aug4

and you wrote your name right there next to mine.

 We had to dodge a truck, he almost hit a buck

 I think we had some luck, and for two bucks

 we bought some bread and fed the grey geese and the ducks.

Everyone will come, everyone will yell

 I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell

 My mother says that I will Am4surely go to Hell

Please be a good man, please say you won't tell

Did you know that that boy is an armed Am4man?

  aug4 Am4

Bearing flowers in two hands, very able to hold me down

  aug4

and love me more than anyone.

Bruno, what happened to your good sense?

  Am4 aug4

I broke down, that man's good. I bet he works for the government.

 Did you hear about that mother who broke her daughter's legs in two?

Am4 Dm aug4

Said, "It's too dangerous out there to walk, so I had to save you!"

...

Am4 aug4

Bruno, did you know that the Greeks in the morning would eat oranges?

 They were firm believers in fruit curing fevers, and I agree.

  Am4 aug4

See, they believed that an orange warms the stomach.
