Verse 1: A Bm Should you expect to see something that you hadn't seen C#m D And somebody you've known since you were sixteen? E f#m If love is a bolt from the blue, D A Then what is a bolt but a glorified screw D E That doesn't hold nothing together? Verse 2: Far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music It's making me sick and I know it's making you sick There's nothing there, it's like eatin air It's like drinking gin with nothing else in That doesn't hold me together. Chorus: A Bm But for one crowded hour C#m D You were the only one in the room E f#m I sailed around all those bumps in the night D A To your beacon in the gloom C# D I thought I found my golden September A f#m In the middle of that purple June A Bm But one crowded hour D E A Would lead to my wreck and ruin. Verse 3: A Bm Now I know you like your boys who take their medicine C#m D From the bowl with their silver spoon E f#m Who'd run away with the dish and scale the fish D A By the silvery light of the moon C# Who were taught from the womb D A f#m To believe to the tune, that as far as their beady eyes see A It's a pleasure pen meant for them, Bm built for them, rent for them D E A And not for the likes of me D E There not for the likes of you and me. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/a/augie-march/75688.html ] Chorus: But for one crowded hour You were the only one in the room I sailed around all those bumps in the night To your beacon in the gloom I thought I found my golden September In the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour Would lead to my wreck and ruin. E B A oh' but greed-eyed harpy of the songland E B A To takes into hers, my hand f#m B And she says, 'boy, I know you're lying E B E ... oh, but so am I" E (buildup) And to this I said 'oh well.' A Bm C#m Now put me in a cage full of lions, I'll learn to speak lion D E In fact I know the language well f#m D I picked it up while I was versing myself A D A D Bm In the language they speak in hell C#m D That night the silence gave birth to a baby E f#m They took away through the silent dismay D A And they raised it to be a lady D E Now she can't keep her mouth shut. Chorus: But for one crowded hour You were the only one in the room I sailed around all those bumps in the night To your beacon in the gloom I thought I found my golden September In the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour Would lead to my wreck and ruin. Chorus 2: (using same chords as chorus 1) Yes and one crowded hour, You were the only one in the room I played a few songs to those bumps in the night In fact I played this very tune You said, "what is this six-stringed instrument But adolescent ruin?" And one crowded hour Would lead to my wreck and ruin A Bm Yes and one crowded hour D E A Would lead to my wreck and ruin. A Bm and one crowded hour D E A Would lead to my wreck and ruin. |
