AWOL - Augie March
(Glen Richards)
Chords trans by S.Parker (responsible but sorry for any mistakes)
Intro
C - C7 - C
Gm F Dm C
Three dozen cycles, give or take a sum,
Am Bb Gm C
The sum of that experience - how to keep running.
F Dm Gm C
O I know justice, it's a birthright if you're born right,
F Dm Gm C
and I know how handsome is that trick of the light,
C F Bb Gm
So don't be mistaken in thinking I'll do right
C F Bb C Bb C
given the chance to do wrong again and again.
Gm F Dm C
Summer romeos casing the park,
Am Bb Gm C
by the uniform urinals of love's rural province.
F Dm Gm C
O don't you know time, with its petty vial of sands,
F Dm Gm C
inscrutable face and merciless hands?
C F
And don't you know love?
Bb Gm
It's a whirlwind of feathers,
C F Bb Gm
tickles you to your nethers and leaves a terrain of despair…
Gm F Dm C
And I know when grief goes unchecked,
Am Bb Gm C
There's a kind of relief in the wreckage for the wrecked…
Gm F Dm C
Weren't you alone last time I saw you?
Am Bb Gm C
How do you keep running from the world and the war?
F Dm Bb C
O I know young fathers who once were like soldiers,
F Dm
AWOL in flung places
Bb C
or without standing orders,
C F Bb Gm C
Alarming approaches to time and it's killing,
F Bb C Bb C
no victimless crime again and again, Again and again
Bridge
Gm - F - Dm - Am - Am - Bb - Gm - C
F - Dm - Bb - C
