        C  Em  Dm  Am  Am/B  

C        Em               Dm            Am  Am/B 
Is it romantic how all of my elegies eulogize me? 
C           Em               Dm 
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones 
      Am  Am/B 
These hunters with cell phones 
  
Em                                  F 
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die 
           Am                            C 
I don't belong�and,�my�beloved, neither do�you 
Em                                F 
Those Windermere peaks�look like a perfect place to cry 
            G 
I'm setting off, but not without my muse 
  
C              Em            Dm 
What should be over burrowed under my skin 
   Am                   Am/B 
In heart-stopping waves of hurt 
C              Em               Dm 
I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze 
        Am          Am/B 
Tell me what are my words worth 

Em                                  F 
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die 
           Am                                  C 
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you 
Em                                 F 
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry 
             G 
I'm setting off, but not without my muse 
  
C                  Em 
I want auroras and sad prose 
Dm                 Am     Am/B      C 
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet 
Em                          Dm 
Because I haven't moved in years 
Am 
And I want you right here 
C                         Em 
A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground 
     Dm               Am 
With no one around to tweet it 
C                Em 
While I bathe in cliffside pools 
          Dm                   Am 
With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief 
  
Em 
Take me to the lakes, where all the poets went to die 
           Am                              C 
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you 
Em                                 F 
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry 
            G 
I'm setting off, but not without my muse 
                  C 
No, not without you
