F# F#                                     B B               F# F# 
Elope with me, Miss Private, and we'll sail around the world
Abm Abm Ebm Ebm
I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl
Abm Abm C# C#
How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take?
Abm Abm C# C#
How many nights of limping 'round on pagan holidays?
B B Eb Eb
Oh, elope with me in private and we'll set something ablaze
Abm Abm C# C# Ebm Ebm
A A trail for the devil to erase

F# F# B B F# F#
San Francisco's calling us, the Giants and Mets will play
Abm Abm Ebm Ebm
Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay?
Abm Abm C# C#
We hung about the stadium, we've got no place to stay
Abm Abm C# C#
We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell
B B Eb Eb
About the saddest book you ever read, it always makes you cry
Abm Abm C# C# Ebm Ebm
The statue's crying too, and well he may

F# F# B B F# F#
I love you I've a drowning grip on your adoring face
Abm Abm Ebm Ebm
I love you my responsibility has found a place
Abm Abm C# C#
Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words
Abm Abm C# C#
Come wave upon me from the family why not that's absurd B B Eb Eb
You'll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job
Abm Abm C# C# Ebm Ebm
Maybe, but not what she deserves

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

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

F# F# B B F# F#
I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend
Abm Abm Ebm Ebm
I know it wouldn't come to love, my heroine pretend
Abm Abm C# C#
A A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
Abm Abm C# C#
You'd settle for an epitaph like Walk Away, Renee
B B Eb Eb
The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower
Abm Abm C# C# Ebm Ebm
Meet you at the statue in an hour
Abm Abm C# C# Ebm Ebm
Meet you at the statue in an hour
