[C]
[D] [C]
[D] [C] [D] [G]
I dread a sunny day, so I'll meet you at [C] the cemetery gate.
[D] Pete and Yates [Em] are on your [C] side.
[G]
I dread a sunny day, so I'll meet you at [C] the cemetery gate.
Pete [D] and Yates [Em] are on your [C] side,
while [D] I [G] live on mine.
So we go inside, and we bravely [C] reach the stone,
and all those people, [D] all those [Em] lives, where are they [C] now?
[G] Oh, where the love and hate and passions [C] just like mine,
they were born and [D] then they lived and [Em] then they [C] died.
Seems [Bm] so unfair, [D] I [G] want to cry.
You [Bm] serve fresh the [D] sun down, [G] salutation to the dawn,
[Bm] and you claim these words [D] as your own.
[C] But I've read well, and [D] I've heard them said
a [Em] hundred times, maybe less, [F] maybe more.
[G] You must write prose and find the words you [C] use to be your own.
Don't break a [D] rise or [Em] take a [C] loan.
There's [G] always someone somewhere with a big [C] nose to show,
and it shrivels you [D] up and lasts when [Em] you fall.
It'll [C] shrivel you up [D] and last when [G] you fall.
You [Bm] say long gone do gods live,
words which could only [G] be your [Bm] own.
[C] And then could you text from [D] whence was ripped
some [Em] dippy whore, [F] 1804?
[G] I dread a sunny day, so let's go,
while we're happy and we'll meet you at the [C] cemetery gate.
Oh, Pete and [D] Yates are [Em] on your [C] side.
[G] I dread a sunny day, so let's go,
while we're happy and we'll meet you at the [C] cemetery gate.
Pete [D] and Yates are [Em] on your [C] side,
but you lose,
[A] well, the [D] love of warmth [G] is up in the mines.
