[Intro]
| E5  | E5  | Em  | Em  |
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em                 Gm
In my day I could hear them say
    Bbm             Em
Mr. K was awfully close
                  Gm
Now we take that bow you know
             Bbm                Em
'Cause it's time to meet your ghost
       Bbm         Em
And I don't understand
               Gm
Minotaurs and jaguars
    Bbm             Em
Are at my finger's tip
                        Gm
Falling up through the mustard gates
        Bbm             Em
And I think I broke my hip
       Bbm         Em
And I don't understand
         Em
I do not understand
 
 
[Chorus]
 B       Bb     A       Ab        F
Nine o'clock I turn my heels and sigh
    E5   F5   F#
For one last time
 B       Bb    A        Ab
Ten-thirty I  tied my chi
     F      E5   F5   F#
And died up on the   vine
 
 
[Verse 2]
 Em                 Gm
Send me out to the pasture, love
         Bbm            Em
With a closet full of whips
                            Gm
The coroner spins with his bag of grins
          Bbm          Em
And he's sewing up my lips
       Bbm         Em
And I don't understand
 
 
[Chorus]
 B       Bb     A       Ab        F
Nine o'clock I turn my heels and sigh
    E5   F5   F#
For one last time
 B       Bb    A        Ab
Ten-thirty I  tied my chi
     F      E5   F5   F#
And died up on the   vine
   F      E5   F5   F#
I diеd up on the   vine
 
 
[Refrain]
                   Bm
Suddenly whеn the moment comes
          F#         Bm
And it's harmony or rage
  F#                Bm
Flowers cry on the corpse of love
          G       F#        F     F#
And it's time to turn your page
 
 
[Solo]
| F  | F#  | F  | F#  | 2x
 
 
[Bridge]
Em           Gm
Mr. and Mrs. Au Contraire
    Bbm                 Em
I think they'll soon arrive
                   Gm
All the treasures you have saved
       Bbm           Em
Your children now divide
       Bbm         Em
And I don't understand
         Em
I do not understand
 B       Bb     A       Ab
Nine o'clock I turn my heels and-
 
 
[Refrain]
                   Bm
Suddenly whеn the moment comes
          F#         Bm
And it's harmony or rage
  F#                Bm
Flowers cry on the corpse of love
          G       F#        F     F#
And it's time to turn your page
 
 
[Outro]
E5             C
I am somewhere else my love
        G                      B
And I think you'll know just where to find me
E5               C
Out in an interstellar place and there's
 G                 B
Nothing left here to define me
 E5               C
You are somewhere else good love
          G                   B
And this life of crime that's all behind me
 E5               C
We are all just space and love
        G                        B
And I think you'll know that's who designed me
E5             C
I am somewhere else my love
        G                      B
And I think you'll know just where to find me
E5               C
Out in an interstellar place and there's
 G                 B
Nothing left here to define me
 E5               C
You are somewhere else good love
          G                   B
And this life of crime that's all behind me
 E5               C
We are all just space and love
        G                        B           E5
And I think you'll know that's who designed me

This is great, the only suggestion I have is that after the final F# of the chorus, there's an F#aug.
