Bm       Gbm            D  A
Upon the sand, upon the bay
Bm          Gbm            D        A
"There is a quick and easy way" you say
           Bm
Before you illustrate
Gbm        D     A
I'd rather state:
Bm           Gbm             D
"I'm not the man you think I am
A   Bm              Gbm     D  A
I'm not the man you think I am"


    Bm       Gbm D  A
And Sorrow's native son
   Bm               Gbm  D  A
He will not smile for anyone
    Bm     Gbm        D  A
And Pretty Girls Make Graves
Dbm A Dbm A Dbm Ab
Oh...


Bm         Gbm              D
End of the pier, end of the bay
A   Bm              Gbm     D        A
You tug my arm, and say: "Give in to lust,
     Bm         Gbm D
Give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll
A       D
Soon be dust... "


    Bm          Gbm             D
Oh, I'm not the man you think I am
A   Bm              Gbm     D A
I'm not the man you think I am
    Bm       Gbm D  A
And Sorrow's native son
   Bm              Gbm  D  A
He will not rise for anyone
    Bm     Gbm        D  A
And Pretty Girls Make Graves
Dbm A Dbm A Dbm Ab
Oh...


Bm           Gbm             D
I could have been wild and I could have
     A
Been free
    Bm                 Gbm       D
But Nature played this trick on me
A            Bm
She wants it Now
                 Gbm
And she will not wait
              D
But she's too rough
             A
And I'm too delicate
Bm           Gbm
Then, on the sand
 D           A            Bm
Another man, he takes her hand
Gbm            D             A
a smile lights up her stupid face
     Bm       Gbm
-and well, it would-
  D                A
I lost my faith in Womanhood
  Bm               Gbm
I lost my faith in Womanhood
  D       A
I lost my faith...
Dbm A Dbm A Dbm Ab
Oh...

Hand in glove...

The sun shines out of our behinds...

Oh...
