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


C chordC F chordF C chordC
San Francisco's calling us the Giants and Mets will play
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
Piazza New York catcher are you straight or are you gay
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
We hung about the stadium we've got no place to stay
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
About the saddest book you ever read it always makes you cry
Dm chordDm G chordG Am chordAm
The statue's crying too and well he may


C chordC F chordF C chordC
I love you I've a drowning grip on your adoring face
Dm chordDm Am chordAm F chordF
I love you my responsibility has found a place
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
Come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd
Dm chordDm Am chordAm
You'll take care of her I know it you will do a better job
Dm chordDm G chordG Am chordAm
Maybe but not what she deserves


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


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


C chordC F chordF C chordC
I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
I know it wouldn't come to love my heroine pretend
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
A chordA lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
You'd settle for an epitaph like "Walk Away Renee"
Dm chordDm F chordF Am chordAm
The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower


Dm chordDm G chordG Am chordAm
Meet you at the statue in an hour
Dm chordDm G chordG Am chordAm
Meet you at the statue in an hour
