With handmade silver sparkles, like a well dressed sequined whore,
A B E
Your lady-like deceptions keep reaching out for more.
E B
And you ask me for nothing, and nothing’s not enough,
A B E
And the fisherman he puts a claim on you but it’s nothing but a bluff.
E B
So with jealous hands tied round my back, I stumble cross the floor,
A B E
Not knowing how to speak, I keep reaching for the door.
E B
I know you know me well I say, ‘cause I’m the Palace Guard,
A B E
Remember me, we made love today at the King’s bazaar.
B E
And you look at me with eyes that never see,
B E
I can feel something start to die inside of me.
E B
So before you show me ev’ry thing, there’s something you must know,
A B E
I’ve worked with your friend John the Geek and his side walk trav’lin’ show.
E B
I know your childhood tailored dreams are ve-ry well disguised,
A B E
So you don’t have to fake it anymore, it’s all been memorized.
B E
And you speak in wordless freedoms never seen,
B E
Now I realize to you it’s all a dream.
Bridge: E B A B
E B
And you speak to me with feelings as real as sealing wax,
A B E
As the nearness dawns the moth is gone leaving trailless tracks.

All you village people sing your songs of the morning sunlit sky,
A B E
Don’t you think it’s time we moved along said the raven to the fly.
E B A B E B A B E B A B E B
Ahh--ah Ahh--ah, Ahh--ah Ahh--ah, Ahh--ah Ahh--ah Ahh--ah
OR....
E B
Ahh Ah
A E
Ahh Ah
E B
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s all right,
A E
na na na, na, na na na, na na na, na na na,
E B
It’s alright, it’s all right, it’s all right, it’s alright, alright,
A E
na na na, na, na na na, na na na, na na na,
E B
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s all right, it’s all right,
A E
na na na, na, na na na, na na na, na na na
A B
La-a-ah na, na, na na na, na na na-a-na
A E
na na na, na, na na na, na na na, na na na,
NOTE: The song fadeout has "Ahh-ah" sung at the same time as “It’s all right”. The "Ahh-ah" is above, and
here's the “It’s all right” with "na na na ..." as well. It sounds as if there are either 12 or 13 "na's"
Like this:
E B
Voices 1: Ahh Ah
Voices 2: It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s all right, it’s alright, it’s all right,
A E
Ahh Ah
na na na, na, na na na, na na na, na na na
