FWell (133211@1)though it was  posted in Calcutta

G (320003@1)                
I know it's just another that you've  written to yourself

 Listen now to the sound of the Drum -

G& (320003@1)don't forget we're nothing yet but  water.

DIt (xx0232@1)won't be pleasant when the present time is  done

Ctesting (x32010@1)nightly 'neath a sprightly summer  moon

Gyour (320003@1)spirit like a jelly in a  spoon.

CHey (x32010@1)ma pretty flower there's a  cat in the room

G& (320003@1)it's not the type you're  used to

FThough (133211@1)I  think I led it to the sink

& tried to make it drink

Git (320003@1)refused to.
