C Am G Am But while they search for a mate, my type hiber-nate, in bedrooms a-bove, D7 F G C Com-posing their songs of love. Verse 2: C F G Am Young, uniform minds, in uniform lines and uniform ties. Dm7 F Eb C# Run round, with trousers on fire and signs of de-sire they cannot dis-guise. C F G Am While I, try to find words, as light as the birds, that circle a-bove, D7 F G C To put in my songs of love. Bridge 1: Ab Bb C Am Fate doesn't hang on a wrong, or right choice.
