Am G ~ And when I danced I danced alone but then I did not dance Fmaj7 E because I *was* alone. So I did not dance. Am G _~_ Fmaj7 I shuffled through life invisible to all the happy couples who would mock E me with their merry laughter – “ha-ha-ha”. Am G F The only sound I heard in my lonely silent world was the rusty hammer of my E Am heart nailing at the hatred in my soul. E - G - Am (quickly) [ synth strings ] G Cmaj7 But then you came, Dm Dmmaj7 Dm7 and my life was turned upside down. Dm7 G7 You showed me the beauty of the things that I had never seen. C [ Embellish with Cmaj7, C/G and C ] Like a snowflake that melts on the eyelash of a startled deer. Dm Dmaj7 Dm7 Or the painting of a dog that wears a deerstalker[1] and G7 Dm Dmmaj7 smokes a pipe that made you laugh so heartily, Dm7 G7 C Cmaj7 C/G but I had previously thought was rubbish. Dm Dmmaj7 Dm7 Or the duck that lands so clumsily on a frozen pond in winter G7 but the intoxicating power of our love transforms this simple act into an C Cmaj7 anthropomorphic drama where Mr. Duck’s embarrassed and the other ducks are C Cmaj7 C/G laughing (quack quack quack quack quack). E/ Am AND THEN YOU LEFT! [Flamenco Style] G F E And I have died a thousand deaths and I will die a thousand more! Am G F E I thought you were an angel - you turned out to be a whore! Am G F E And everything has turned to dust! Everything is infected with the plague! E Am Why did you have to sleep with Craig? G F E "Oh he's so sensitive, he's got a tattoo." F E Yeah, carving your name with a compass in my forehead was not enough for you! F* E F* E [ Flutes ] Am G The snow flake on the eye of the dear has turned to F E puss that oozes from an open wound. F E The deer now blind it stumbles into a ravine. Am G The duck lies shredded in a pancake, F E soaking in the hoisin of your lies. Am G The dog has moved from the pipe to 60 cigarettes a day, F Dm E Am G and coughs away his life in the cold neon research lab of your betrayal. F G Am Of your betrayal...(fade) Love You Loads Nat!!
