Section 1:

A-e-f#m-(slide down to e)-d(sus4)

A-e-f#m-(slide down to e)-d(sus4)



Section 2:

D-e-f#m-c#m-d-bm-e(7)

D-e-f#m-c#m-d-bm-e(7)



A we went down to the e old part of town

By the f#m stinking canal and the cotton (slide down to e)-d(sus4) mill

Under a a ghetto palm with her e bicycle shorts on

With a f#m gesture she (slide down to e) said to d(sus4) me

C#m i'd like to d get undressed bm with e(7) you

D and though the e thought had never really f#m crossed my mind,

C#m oh, but d that was a lie bm so we went a-e(7)-long



We ran out under the turning leaves

And the fetid earth, it was damp and cool

Autumn's feeble light on her salty neck

All innocence it was lost

But i have always taken more than i have given back

And as a matter of fact, i've given nothing up



Repeat section 1



Repeat section 2 to finish



End chord: a
