Artist: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Song: I Do, Dear, I Do Album: "The Boatman's Call" demo ----------------------------------- C Em I wish you happy christmas F I do dear, I do Dm I wish for you the stars, babe G I wish for you the moon Em You can sit, and you can drink your champagne Am With your gibbering gum Dm I hope he's being good to you G I do dear, I do Ain't no whirlwind below your wing Wish that you will keep safe Up there in your leather babe With your ivory and (?) Things down here are fragmatic Fragmatic, exploding all over the room I think everything's a little off-center, babe I do dear, I do You said, that to love me you must set me free Now, that may all be very well Still I miss you baby More than words can ever tell Sometimes I can not sleep The greatness of my hate for you Sometimes I can not sleep For I miss you Your Davey is bright as the eyes The girl at the hive wants you May your sun be happy yellow, babe And your sky be baby blue I miss your manic scratches And your howling at the moon Ten steps behind me With your dustpan and bird I hope you wish for me All the things I wish for you Health, hope and happiness The sun and the moon Say hello to the one Who really don't have a clue I'll be calling you soon I think I love you I do dear, I do. --------------------------- transcribed by Stefan B. svarta_skuggan@hotmail.com
