Long Dead Love by Richard Thompson
Long Dead Love
Em7 G
Somebody's walking, oh, somebody's walking
C
There on the grave of our love
Em7 G C
And somebody's kicking the dust and the ashes away
D G Am
Why don't they just let it die and fade and grow cold again
D G Am
Better our footsteps divide and our memory grow old again
Em7 Bm Am Em7 Bm Am
Oh long dead love, long dead love
C D
How much dirt must you shovel on what's already dead
C D
Don't send flowers to remember, send thorns instead
C D Em7
And who's that polishing the tombstone over our heads, ohh
Somebody's dancing on our sad misfortune
Oh there on the grave of our love
And somebody's sweeping the splinters of my broken heart away
Why don't they just let it die and fade and grow cold again
Better our footsteps divide and our memory grow old again
Oh long dead love, long dead love
It's been so long it's even hard to find the right place
Was it you who paid for Burke and Hare to come in on the case
You know grave-robbing is a sin and this is a crying disgrace
Am7 Em7
Deep in the night, the cruel intention comes stealing
Am7 Em7
Deep in the night, I can't close my eyes for that feeling
Oh long dead love, Long dead love...
