and its your summer of fear

F  C   G

might last o month day a week
or a whole damn year
can you feel it drawing near?
In every port in every pier
whispered in your ear
can you hear it as you crawl
over writing on the wall
in every curtain every call
in your dormitory hall
where all in all is all in all........
