Elope with me Miss Private and we'll sail around the world

I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl
Dm                                            Am
How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take
Dm                                  Am    F
How many nights of limping round on pagan holidays
     Dm                                             Am
Oh elope with me in private and we'll set something ablaze
   Dm          G         Am
A trail for the devil to erase


C                              F                    C
San Francisco's calling us the Giants and Mets will play

Piazza New York catcher are you straight or are you gay
     Dm                         F               Am
We hung about the stadium we've got no place to stay
Dm                               F          Am
We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell
                Dm                                       Am
About the saddest book you ever read it always makes you cry
Dm                  G               Am
The statue's crying too and well he may

I love you I've a drowning grip on your adoring face

I love you my responsibility has found a place
Dm                                    F               Am
Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words
Dm                               F          Am
Come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd
            Dm                                         Am
You'll take care of her I know it you will do a better job
Dm        G            Am
Maybe but not what she deserves


C                                    F               C
Elope with me Miss Private and we'll drink ourselves awake
Dm                                F              Am
We'll taste the coffee houses and award certificates
Dm                                           Am
A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960s style
Dm                                   F               Am
We'll comment on the decor and we'll help the passer by
          Dm                        Am
And at dusk when work is over we'll continue the debate
      Dm              G            Am
In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare


C                     F                     C
The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day
Dm                                  F        Am
The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays
Dm                               F                Am
He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor
Dm                                        F             Am
He knows the drink affects his speed he's praying for a doorway
         Dm                         Am
Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench
Dm               G            Am
Life outside the diamond is a wrench


C                                    F             C
I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend

I know it wouldn't come to love my heroine pretend
Dm                                F               Am
A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
Dm                               F          Am
You'd settle for an epitaph like "Walk Away Renee"
               Dm                         F              Am
The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower


Dm              G            Am
Meet you at the statue in an hour
Dm              G            Am
Meet you at the statue in an hour
