[A] I'm a lonely [F] ass man, [Am]
just laying incense and [F] sunglasses on Orchard Street, [Am] _ both loads
of bootleg [F] Sean John.
[Ab] _
[A] I'll dream you up [F] in this vast dark bed and [Am] believe I loved you for each tear [F] I'm on the
back of your [Ab] neck [Am] and I want to kiss you [F] but I can't.
[A] Down on the river by the sugar [F] plant, _ [Ab] down [A] on the river by the sugar [D] plant. _ _

[Am] _ _ _ [F] Earrings swaying down the low [Am] bed, nose above the [F] slope and the mouth turned [Ab] down.
[Am] _ _ _ [F] Shoulders failing through the [Am] falling angle of the throat [F] and your sweet sad [Ab] stare.
[Am] _ Ball of the waves [F] that crash upon the shore, [Am] _ fruitlessly shushing [F] the world.
_ [Ab] _
[Am] _ I'll pledge allegiance [F] to my displacement, _
[A] _ my flag of doubt is [F] on the pearl.
_ [Ab] _
[Am] I'll dream you up [F] on a vast dark coast, [Am] believe I see you walking towards [F] me,
arms outstretched like a [Ab] ghost [Am] and I want to kiss you [F] but I can't. _
[Am] Down on the river by the sugar [F] plant, _ _ [Am]
down on the river by the sugar [F] plant. _ _
