            E               G#m 
Time after time you will forgive me
         G              B
Like an animal in your care
             E                 G#m
But give it time.  You will outlive me
             G                      B
And take the bow back you put in my hair
          E                    G#m
Made a parade of myself in the street outside your house
        G                     B
For the New York photographer there
           E                    G#m
I fell for crime and I fell for beauty
           G                               B
I fell for you because you're the one that cared

           C                  G
And when I die you can put on costumes
       Em                     Em
In the style of the clothes I wore
             C                G
And sing the songs your lover taught you
              Em                              Em
When you were too young to know that this was    what they were for.

         C            G         Em     Em      (riff at bottom)
La la la la. La la la lala. lalala
         C            G         Em     E
La la la la. La la la lala. lalala

               E                    G#m
Like some dead relative, you will remember me most 
      G                   B                    E
by my funeral and all the beautiful toasts you made
              G#m                     G
Take back the spade.  We've both been filling up our days 
             B
like we were filling in a grave
