Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "The Trapeze Swinger" dari Iron & Wine.
[Verse 1]
C G
Please, remember me
F
Happily
C G
By the rosebush laughing
C G
With bruises on my chin
F
The time when
C G
We counted every black car passing
Am G
Your house beneath the hill
F
And up until
C G
Someone caught us in the kitchen
Am G
With maps, a mountain range
F
A piggy bank
C G
A vision too removed to mention
And
[Verse 2]
C G
Please, remember me
F
Fondly
C G
I heard from someone you're still pretty
C G
And then they went on to say
F
That the pearly gates
C G
Had such eloquent graffiti
Am G
Like "We'll meet again"
F
And "Fuck the man"
C G
And "Tell my mother not to worry"
Am G
And angels with their great
F
Handshakes
C G
Were always done in such a hurry
And
[Verse 3]
C G
Please, remember me
F
That Halloween
C G
Making fools of all the neighbors
C G
Our faces painted white
F
By midnight
C G
We'd forgotten one another
Am G
And when the morning came
F
I was ashamed
C G
Only now it seems so silly
Am G
That season left the world
F
And then returned
C G
And now you're lit up by the city
And
[Verse 4]
C G
Please, remember me
F
Mistakenly
C G
In the window of the tallest tower
C G
Calling passers-by
F
We're much too high
C G
To see the empty road at happy hour
Am G
Gleam and resonate
F
Just like the gates
C G
Around the holy kingdom
Am G
With words like "Lost and found"
F
And "Don't look down"
C G
And "Someone save Temptation"
