Piazza New York Catcher by Belle And Sebastian Tabbed by: CatchingFirefly This is the easiest way to play this song and have the correct sound. Most of the credit goes to squizz for tabbing ver 2, but I have made some changes to things I think sound better. Standard Tuning Capo: 1st G Am Em Elope with me Miss Private and we?ll sail around the world Am Em I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl Am D How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take? Am D How many nights of limping round on pagan holidays? Am Em Oh elope with me in private and we?ll set something ablaze Am D Em A trail for the devil to erase G Am Em San Francisco?s calling us, the Giants and Mets will play Am Em Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay? Am D We hung about the stadium, we?ve got no place to stay Am D We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell Am Em About the saddest book you ever read, it always makes you cry Am D Em The statue?s crying too and well he may G Am Em I love you I?ve a drowning grip on your adoring face Am Em I love you my responsibility has found a place Am D Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words Am D Come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd Am Em ?You?ll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job? Am D Em Maybe, but not what she deserves G Am Em Elope with me Miss Private and we?ll drink ourselves awake Am Em We?ll taste the coffee houses and award certificates Am D A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960 style Am D We?ll comment on the decor and we?ll help the passer by Am Em And at dusk when work is over we?ll continue the debate Am D Em In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare G Am Em The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day Am Em The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays Am D He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor Am D He knows the drink affects his speed he?s praying for a doorway Am Em Back into the life he wants a confession from the bench Am D Em Life outside the diamond is a wrench G Am Em I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend Am Em I know it wouldn?t come to love, my heroine pretend Am D A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day Am D You?d settle for an epitaph like ?Walk Away, Renee? Am Em The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower Am D Em Meet you at the statue in an hour Am D Em Meet you at the statue in an hour
