Capo: 4nd fret

Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me

All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see
  C5          F5        C5     F5         C5     G5         C5
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
  C5         F5     C5      F5     C5      G5     C5
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see

[Verse]
C5                                       G5
Fleet of black, fleet of black limousines
                     F5                         C5
These tinted machines, here comes the cavalcade
                                                 G5
With the armored cars, armored cars like berettas
                  F5                    C5             G5                 
Flags on antennaes designed to keep me safe, keep me safe

[Chorus]
C5            G5         C5
And oh my my oh hey hey
F5       C5          G5      C5
Here he comes, the candidate
C5              G5            C5
Blue eyed boy, united states
F5        C5        G5       C5
Vote for him , the candidate

[Verse]
Diamonds cut, diamonds cut for the carrots
Plaster of paris, the floats fill up the street

And the beauty queens, beauty queens with the white gloves
All sick from the night clubs, they wave with pageantry, pageantry

[Chorus]
Oh my my oh hey hey
Here it comes, the big parade
Marching bands and barricades
Make way, for the big parade

[Bridge]

[Verse]
Canvas covered, canvas covered in resin
The violent men who dance the blood ballet
And the bookies say, bookies say it's the 3rd round
Oh when louie will go down, if he don't there's hell to pay, and hell to raise

[Chorus]
And oh my my oh hey hey
Here he comes, the welterweight
Take a dive, for goodness sake
Or say goodbye to the welterweight

[Verse]
Catholic priest, catholic priest in a crisis
He's torn between romance and jesus, who will win the civil war

And he says I'm in love, I'm in love with a woman
Yea this is my confession, I'm leaving I can't a priest anymore, anymore

[Chorus]
And oh my my oh hey hey
There he goes, the man of faith

Left the church for a fiance
Let him love, the man of faith

[Bridge]

[Verse]
T.v. cameras, t.v. cameras and stage hands
American bandstand, electric guitars

And he's singin songs, singin songs for the lonely
All the girls with the room keys, they know all his words by heart, by heart and they all sing

[Interlude]
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see
Lovely girl won't you stay, won't you stay, stay with me
All my life I was blind, I was blind, now I see

Lovely girl won't you stay, oh oh ohoh

[Chorus]
Oh my my oh hey hey
Here she comes by saving grace
Burn the car and save the plates
She's arrived, my saving grace
