Lover, tell me if you can
Who?s gonna buy the wedding bands?
G6E
Times being what they are

Hard and getting harder all the time
ORPHEUS:

Lover, when I sing my song
All the rivers sing along
G6E
And they?re gonna break their banks for me
To lay their gold around my feet
All the flashing in the pan, all the fashion for your hand
G6Asus2E
The river's gonna give us the wedding bands
EURYDICE:
E
Lover, tell me, if you?re able
Who?s gonna lay the wedding table?
G6E
Times being what they are
G6Asus2E
Dark and getting darker all the time
ORPHEUS:
E
Lover, when I sing my song
All the trees gonna sing along
G6E
And bend their branches down to me
To lay their fruit around my feet
The almond and the apple
And the sugar from the maple
G6Asus2E
The trees gonna lay the wedding table
G6Asus2E
EURYDICE:
E
Lover, tell me, when we?re wed
Who?s gonna make the wedding bed?
G6E
Times being what they are
G6Asus2E
Hard and getting harder all the time
ORPHEUS:
E
Lover, when I sing my song
All the birds gonna sing along
G6E
And they?ll come flying 'round to me
To lay their feathers at my feet
And we?ll lie down in eiderdown,
A pillow ?neath our heads
G6Asus2EEmaj7
The birds gonna make the wedding bed
G6Asus2EEmaj7
And the trees gonna lay the wedding table
G6Asus2EEmaj7
And the rivers gonna give us the wedding bands
