this is the easiest way to play this song and have the correct sound . most of the
credit goes to squizz for tabbing ver 2 , but i have made some changes to things i
think sound better .

standard tuning
capo : 1st

G Am Em
elope with me miss private and well sail around the world
Am Em
i will be your ferdinand and you my wayward girl
Am D
how many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take?
Am D
how many nights of limping round on pagan holidays?
Am Em
oh elope with me in private and well set something ablaze
Am D Em
a trail for the devil to erase

G Am Em
san franciscos calling us , the giants and mets will play
Am Em
piazza , new york catcher , are you straight or are you gay?
Am D
we hung about the stadium , weve got no place to stay
Am D
we hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell
Am Em
about the saddEst book you ever read , it always makes you cry
Am D Em
the statues crying too and well he may

G Am Em
i love you ive a drowning grip on your adoring face
Am Em
i love you my responsibility has found a place
Am D
beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words
Am D
come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd
Am Em
youll take care of her , i know it , you will do a better job
Am D Em
maybe , but not what she deserves

G Am Em
elope with me miss private and well drink ourselves awake
Am Em
well taste the coffee houses and award certificates
Am D
a privy seal to keep the feel of 1960 style
Am D
well comment on the decor and well help the passer by
Am Em
and at dusk when work is over well continue the debate
Am D Em
in a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare

G Am Em
the catcher hits for . 318 and catches every day
Am Em
the pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays
Am D
he goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor
Am D
he knows the drink affects his speed hes praying for a doorway
Am Em
back into the life he wants a confession from the bench
Am D Em
life outside the diamond is a wrench

G Am Em
i wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend
Am Em
i know it wouldnt come to love , my heroine pretend
Am D
a lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
Am D
youd settle for an epitaph like walk away , renee
Am Em
the sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower

Am D Em
meet you at the statue in an hour
Am D Em
meet you at the statue in an hour
