Capo 7th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
EURYDICE:
Lover, tell me if you can
Whos gonna buy the wedding bands?
Times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
ORPHEUS:
Lover, when I sing my song
All the rivers sing along
And theyre gonna break their banks for me
To lay their gold around my feet
All the flashing in the pan, all the fashion for your hand
The river's gonna give us the wedding bands
EURYDICE:
Lover, tell me, if youre able
Whos gonna lay the wedding table?
Times being what they are
Dark and getting darker all the time
ORPHEUS:
Lover, when I sing my song
All the trees gonna sing along
And bend their branches down to me
To lay their fruit around my feet
The almond and the apple
And the sugar from the maple
The trees gonna lay the wedding table
Instrumental
EURYDICE:
Lover, tell me, when were wed
Whos gonna make the wedding bed?
Times being what they are
Hard and getting harder all the time
ORPHEUS:
Lover, when I sing my song
All the birds gonna sing along
And theyll come flying 'round to me
To lay their feathers at my feet
And well lie down in eiderdown,
A pillow neath our heads
The birds gonna make the wedding bed
And the trees gonna lay the wedding table
And the rivers gonna give us the wedding bands
