Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][C#dim][F#]

[Verse 1]
You [Bm]stand among the awkward hollyhocks,
big [D]eyes, loves ma[E]chinery not yet working,
The dandelions [G]trampled, [A]the tall grass twisting in the [D]wind,
the lizard sulking in the sun.
[Bm]You stand ther[Fdim]e like some new flow[C#m]er,
[C#dim]beautiful, [F#]not yet ready to be[Bm] picked.
This summer belongs to the [E]people of the world who [D]want each other,
the [E]lonely have no right
to share [F#m]the summer sun.[B][E]
[C#m]See the dog, he doesn't mo[D#dim]ve, a voyeur, nevermind,[G#]
what we've done is beautiful for gods and
anim[C#m]als to see, for us [E]to stand aside in awe and
look ourselves up and [F#]down.
When you let [F#m]go to me,
[B]it detaches from me all[G#m] the debts I've paid tha[E]t day, smiles to
sec[C#m]retaries mean, dividends to competition in my [D#dim]work,
courtesy to [B]those who break me
[G#]down.
Good morning to the [C#m]elevator man.
Your thighs [E]make over all the scales,
and so I
home to [F#]you.
To use your belly as [F#m]a cape.[B]
To cover up [E]the day.
