Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

ALet fall your

Gsoft and swaying sDkirt; let fall your

Ashoes; let fall your sEmhirt. I'm not the

Glady-killing sDort. Enough to

Ahurt G a girl in porDt.

Verse

AMarie's gone

Gblonde, and lost a sDtone. She lay on her

Alawn, spun and alEmone. And when the

Gmorning sun, it rDose upon

AMarie, and her lacy cEmlothes. It lit her

Gup, and she walked arDound the winding

Astreets of Camden tEmown. She don't know

Gwho she wants to Dbe, but if I

Aknew, G I’d tell MaDrie.

Chorus

And Cindy tells me she's had fun,

Sitting back stage,someone's plus one.

Up in her room,the records spin

a needle in the grooves that she's worn thin.

Well, she lifts her sleeve and she sees a name.

And she's got a smile on her face

And she's got a story you can't see

Well, that's just between that name and Cindy.

Interlude

A Asus4 A

And before Holly made her way

Over the sea and far away,

She's telling me inside her car

driving us back from the Crystal Corner bar.

I lost her there; I fell from hell

Cut some fresh pieces from myself

Then for a second something in me

Said leave today, it's time, Holly.

Interlude

Oh, I'm a weak and lonely sort,

Though I'm not sailing just for sport.

I've come to feel out on the sea

These urgent lives press against me.

I'm just aghast; I'm not a part

My tender head with my easy heart.

These several years out on the sea

Made me empty, cold, and clear pour yourself into me.

Chorus
