We float before the sea at dusk

In heavy mist, in glitter dust

We sip the wind through lips of lust

And out it comes, warm wisps of love

I smile because you want to

Put the flowers in your hair

Wrap your tendrils round my chest

I am your boy

Shake my little soul for you now toy
      Dm          Bb   F        C
And I settle up into a world of noise
      Dm          Bb         F         C
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
       Dm         Bb       F        C
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Down by the shore, a funny foal

Who bit my wings and ate them whole

I hit my head and bit the leaves

You left before I come to

You left before I

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
       Dm         Bb       F        C
With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Interlude -x2-: Dm  F

Bridge:
Dm
Shanks of slate fall to the beach
F
Wrapped in life in ultra greens
Dm
Pools teem with tiny feet
F
And whorls of tired anemones
    Bb
You left before I got to
    Dm
You left before I got to
    Gm
You left before I
    Gm
You left before I

SHook the flowers from your hair
C
Run to me and kiss my hands
    Gm
I'm dead before I
    Gm
I'm dead before I

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
       Dm         Bb       F        C
With a battery of guilt on which to poise
