[Intro]
C F C F
[Verse 1]
Am F
I'll never let go of a lovely temptation
C
It laces the ground on my feet
Am
I used to walk lightly
F
It haunted me nightly and
C
I could not compete
[Chorus 1]
E7 Am
Now I'm drunk on the joy of the beautiful boys
E7 Am
They rabble and rouse in their cunning and coy
F G
Their eyes big as planets and lips where the universe dies
[Verse 2]
Am F C
That stunning companion of age is a covert illusion of grace
Am F C
It pulls from my fingers and casually lingers the lines on my face
[Chorus 2]
E7 Am
All of my fool abandoned and gone
E7 Am
Gratefully subject to carrying on
F G
But years are a template never to sacrifice long
[Instrumental Break]
Am F C C
Am F C C
E7 Am E7 Am
F F G G
[Verse 3]
Am F
Suffer the sadness, it's not what it seems
C
It is useful and sweet
Am F C
Like some kind of thirst that's insatiable first before falling asleep
[Chorus 3]
E7 Am
Never too late for the fever to run
E7 Am
Faster and faster and never quite done
