 The chords below look fine.  I just wanted to add an intro 
 which I picked out by listening to the CD. I think its pretty 
 darn close.

 Now go into the following 
  
 part 1: A E F#m D 
 part 2: D E F#m C#m D Bm E 
  
         A 
 We went down 
                    E 
 To the old part of town 
                 F#m 
 By the stinking canal 
            D 
 The cotton mill 
  
 Under a ghetto palm 
 With her bicycle shorts on 
 With a gesture 
 She said to me 
  
 D        E    F#m     C#m 
 I really must confess 
              D       Bm 
 I'd to get undressed 
      E 
 With you 
  
 Though the thought 
 Had never really crossed my mind 
 Oh, but that was lie 
 So we went along 
  
 We went out 
 Under the turning leaves 
 Fetted earth 
 Was damp and cool 
  
 Autumn's feeble lights 
 On her salty neck 
 All innocence was lost 
  
 I really must confess 
 I'm  feeling quite distressed 
 My stars are always crossed 
  
 And I have alway taken 
 More than I have given back 
 And as a matter of fact 
 I've given nothing up 
  
  
 Solo: violins and whatnot. 
  
 Finish with: 
  
 |D------6b7---| 
 |E---0--------| 
  
 The end
