St Patrick

(início)

D
I didn’t sleep at all last night
D
I thought my heart had mastered the run of these seas
A
But they appear not to care about calming lately
Bm                              A
I awoke with a smart and a look at the phone.
A                                               G
I swear that I would have called you if I’d been sure you were alone.
                                   D
And doesn’t that drive things home?
D
The hardest time to forget is when sleep clears your mind,
D
Bringing up what might have been, and who’s by her side.
A
And if I appear forlorn, that’s the reason truly.
Bm                                      A
Should I find myself a surrogate to keep the winters warm
                                        G
Blame her for my former love and blunt her of her charms?
                      D
Blunt her of her charms?
D
Oh dear Saint Patrick, I pray for some water
D
Just let me quench my thirst this morning after.
A
And this girl by my side, well who knows the future?
Bm                                      A
But if I appear forgetful she’s the reason on my mind
                                  G
If you detect a smile it’s as I dream of foreign lands
                                D
And letting things get out of hand
A                               D
Is exactly what I’ve got planned!
