5 favorites
G
Pushing through the market square, Em
so many mothers sighingA
News had just come over, we had C
five years left to cry inG
News guy wept and told us, Em
earth was really dyingA
Cried so much his face was wet, and I C
knew he was not lyingI heard
G
telephones, opera house, favorite melodiesI saw
Em
boys, toys, electric irons and TV'sMy
A
brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spareI had to
C
cram so many things to store everything in thereAnd all the fat-skinny
Am
people, C
and all the tall-short Am
peopleC
And all the nobody G
people, C
and all the somebody D
peopleI never thought I'd need so many
C
peopleG
A girl my age went off her head, Em
hit some tiny childrenA
If the black hadn't a pulled her off, I C
think she would have killed themG
A soldier with a broken arm, Em
his fixed stare to the wheels of a CadillacA
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a C
queer threw up at the sight of thatG
I think I saw you in an ice cream parlor, Em
drinking milk shakes cold and longA
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, C
don't think you knew you were in this songG
And it was cold, and it rained, so I felt like an actorAnd I
Em
thought of Ma and I wanted to get back thereYour
A
face, your race, the way that you talkI
C
kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walkWe got
G
five years, stuck on my eyes - Em
Five years, what a supriseWe got
A
five years, my brain hurts alot - C
Five years, that's all we gotWe got
G
five years...
