peter and lou would skate
E D#m G#7
on winter’s frozen lake
A G#m
circling around all their friends
A F#m7 B
laughing wherever they went .

E E
they’re catching the mornin’ plane
E D#m G#7
and sendin’ the rest by train ,
A G#m
hangin’ their skates on the wall
A G#m
takin’ their turn and that’s all
F#m Am6 E F# A B7
with brushes & canvas & macrome handcrafts & bessie smith singin’ the
E7
blues . . .
A G#m
a chorus for peter & lou .

E E
now loneliness has a way
E D#m G#7
of hangin’ around all day
A G#m
i’m standing alone on the ice
A C#m F#m7 B
i’m wonderin’ if maybe they’ve been right

E E
so i’ll catch the mornin’ plane
E D#m G#7
send all the rest by train
C#m A G#m
leavin’ the ice there to thaw
A G#m
i’m takin’ my turn and that’s all .
F#m Am6 E F# A
and if i should miss them , i’ll go back & listen to bessie smith
B7 E7
singin’ the blues
A G#m
in a chorus for peter & lou

F#m Am6 E F# A
oh , if i should miss them , i’ll go back & listen to bessie smith
B7 E7
singin’ the blues
A G#m
in a chorus for peter & lou
