[A] .
Come over to the window my [Bm] little darling .
[D] I'd like to try to read [A] your palm.
I [G] used to think I was some [D] kind of gypsy boy .
[F#m] Before I let you take [E] me home .
[D] [A] Now so long my [Em] darling [F#m] It's time that we began [E] to laugh and cry and cry and laugh [A] about it all.
Well you know that I love to [Bm] live with you [D] But you make me forget so very [A] much .
[G] I forget to pray [A] [D] for the angels [G] And then [F#m] the angels forget to pray [E] for us .
[G#] [A] Now so long my darling [F#m] It's time that we began [E] to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about [A] it all.
We met when we were [Bm] almost young [D] Deep in the green [A] lilac pond .
[G] You held on to me like I [D] was a crucifix [F#m] As we went kneeling through [E] the door.
[A] Now so long my darling [F#m] It's time that we [E] began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about [A] it all again.
Your letters, they all say that [Bm] you're beside me now [D] Then why do I [A] feel alone?.
I'm [G] standing on a ledge [D] and your fine spider web [F#m] Is fastening my ankle [E] to a stone.
Now [A] so long my [F#m] darling It's time that we [A] began to [E] laugh and cry and cry and laugh about [A] it all.
For now I need [Bm] your hidden love [D] I'm cold as a new [A] razor blade.
You [G] left when I called you I [D] was curious I [F#m] never said that [E] I was brave.
[Bm] [A] Now so long my darling [F#m] It's time that we [E] began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about [A] it all .
Really, you're [G] such [B] a pretty one .
[D] I see you've gone and [A] changed your name again .
[G] And just when I climbed this [D] whole mountainside [F#m] To wash my .
[E] eyelids in the rain.
[A] Oh so long my darling [G] .
[F#m] It's time that we began [E] to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about [A] it all.
[D] [A] [B] .
