Adam at the Window Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Adam's at the window staring
at the apple trees [Bm]on fire
[G]Waiting for the windfall that brings
the smile of kings and their desire
[Bm]Door[C] blows in behind him,
a floral pattern, summer dress [G]so gay
[D]Burning in the sunlight, too [G]late to wait,
[D]for darkness won't delay
[G]To steal her cherry lips away
For [Em]while the careless [D]tongues [Bm]of sunlight
[C]slowly trickle [G]down
[C]The curve of hips, her fin[Bm]ger [Em]tips,
in [Am]kissing sips we [D]drown
In kiss[G]ing [C]sips we drown
And [D]Adam

[Verse 2]
[C]will [G]have his [D]way
Adam [C]will [G]have his way[C][D][G]

[Verse 3]
Adam's on the [G]island,
living in the land [Bm]of love
[G]Shadows lurk around him,
drunk on the royal jelly of [Bm]pure love
[C]Full and ripe, the fruit hang,
for when the prince arrives he will [G]want more
And [D]more and more he will drink
from [G]the canvas cup
[D]The son of a swan will
[G]then loose his plumera
And [Em]he will wear a n[D]ew age s[Bm]uit
and [C]haunt the joints in [G]town
And [C]play a silver ma[Em]gic flute
and [Am]call his lovers [D]down
And call his lover[C]s down
And [D]Adam

[Verse 4]
[C]will [G]have his [D]way
Adam [C]will [G]have his [Dsus4]way[D]
[C]Will [G]have [D]his [C]way[D]
[Dm][C][D][G][Gm]

[Verse 5]
Adam's at the [G]easel painting
in the wrinkles and [Bm]the gray
[G]Waiting for November,
easy with the darkness of [Bm]the day
[C]Smiles a tear of gladness,
and Adam's at the window once [G]again
He's [D]burning in the sunlight, too [G]late to wait,
[D]for darkness won't delay
[G]To steal her cherry lips away
For [Em]while the careless [D]tongues [Bm]of
sunlight [C]slowly trickle [G]down
[C]The curve of hips, her [Em]fin gertips,
in [Am]kissing sips we [D]drown
In kissing [C]sips we drown
And [D]Adam

[Verse 6]
[C]will [G]have [D]his[C][G][D][C][G][D][Dm][D][C]
[G]way[D][C][G][Dsus4][D][C][G][D][Dm][C][D][G]
