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.
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.
