The Wide-Eyed And Laughing

Gm Ab Are you still in control of the boat that you row Bb Cm Or do you still cling to me when its sinking Gm Ab I never condemned you, I only consoled you Bb Cm When candlelight made me a King Fm G For the wide-eyed and laughing passed like a season Ab Gm Cm Erasing a passion to sin Fm G For no one knew better than the tealeaves and the tarots Ab Ddim Ab Eb Fm Cm That the wide-eyed and laughing were just one step ahead of the wind Gm Ab And the hearts that you played on the porch swing for me Bb Cm Was a song that I'd heard in the past Gm Ab For I had an audience somewhere inside you Bb Cm That applauded whenever you laughed Gm Ab Gone is a word that I now rarely use Bb Cm Though sometime in the course of a day Gm Ab I go racing back like a man possessed Fm G By the wide-eyed and laughing daughters of some different age
