Songs Of Love Tab

by The Divine Comedy


Capo 3rd fret

INTRO - C (with some suspended 4ths thrown in) 

                
Pale, pubescent beasts roam through the  
                
streets and coffee-shops 
                                    
Their pray gather in herds of stiff knee-length  
                    
skirts and white ankle-socks 
                              
But while they search for a mate my type hiber- 
               
nate in bedrooms above 
                         
Composing their songs          of love 

{as verse 1} 

Young, uniform minds in uniform 

lines and uniform ties 

Run round with trousers on fire and signs of 

desire they cannot disguise 

While I try to find words as light as the 

birds that circle above 

To put in my songs of love 


                               
Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice 
                                
Fortune depends on the tone of your voice 
                          
So sing while you have time 
                            
Let the sun shine down from above 
                              
And fill you with songs      of love 

{INSTRUMENTAL - based on verse} 

{As above} 

Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice 

Fortune depends on the tone of your voice 

So let's sing while we still can 

While the sun hangs high up above 
                          
Wonderful songs           of love 
                     
Beautiful songs   of       love
