[Verse 1]
Em G
It's been a long time
F#m B Em
and time changed everything
Am D7 Gadd9
Apart-from the blue tattoo along your skin-
F#m B Em
and your salt tears
[Verse 2]
G
It's been a slow year
F#m B Em
The un-fruitless Rorschach test that I took for you
Am D7 Gadd9
All that I could make out were your Polynesian shoes-
F#m B
And- your soft tears
[Chorus]
Am D7
Hey man- where's the money gone
Gadd9 C
I was in the drink- I was swimming on-
Fadd9 B7 E
Startled. By the song the seabird sung
Am D7
And all the years line up, giddy, they wait-
Gadd9 C Fadd9
they descend the stairs of the cabaret ballet
B7 E Em
And as they skip off make plans on which to renege
[Verse 3]
G
It's been a long time
F#m B Em
For you blue I cut my foot forcing the shoe
Am D7 Gadd9
And the red flame vase I blew for you
F#m B
And your hot tears
[Chorus]
Am D7
Hey man- where did the fun go
Gadd9 C
I was in the drink- I was diving low
Fadd9 B7 E
Aiming for the bottom of everything!
Am D7
And all the pretty years- line up, to say
Gadd9 C Fadd9
"It was a nice interior onto which the wrong light played
B7 E E
Marks deducted- for the unclean stage
Em
G
It's been a long time
F#m B Em
and time changed everything
[Chorus]
Am D7 Gadd9
Hey man- where's the money gone-
C Fadd9
I was in the drink- I was swimming on
B7 E
Frightened by the song the bitter gull sung
Am D7
And all the birds line up to say
Gadd9 C Fadd9
"It was a bad idea that the romantico guitar played"
B7 E
But it echoes deep in the cavity
