The Speed Of Things by Robyn Hitchcock




            The Speed Of Things 








[Verse 1]
G    A      D             D/F# G  A
        All in the terror of the moment
            D             D/F# G  A
        That pounces as it open swings
            D             D/F# G    A
        A line of dots illu - mi - nated
            D           D/F#  G        A
        For I have seen the speed of things


[Verse 2]
G    A      D             D/F# G  A
        I fed you in your chair this morning
            D             D/F# G  A
        You made a mess of everything
            D             D/F# G  A     
        By afternoon, you drove a sports car
                    D             D/F# G  A
        You were driving at the speed of things


[Verse 3]
G    A      D             D/F# G  A
        You held my hand when I was crying
            D             D/F# G  A
        You were allergic to bee stings
            D             D/F# G  A
        I threw some earth onto your coffin
            D             D/F# G  A
        And thought about the speed of things


[Verse 4]
G    A      D             D/F# G  A
        I kissed you by the clear, cold river
            D             D/F# G  A
        I felt like I was growing wings
            D             D/F# G  A
        But I grew horns and found another
            D             D/F# G  A
        Oh, a girl to share the speed of things
            D             D/F# G  A     
        Oh, a girl to share the speed of things



[Verse 5]
G    A      D             D/F# G  A
        All in the terror of the moment
            D             D/F# G  A
        That pounces as it open swings
            D             D/F# G  A
        A line of dots illuminated
            D             D/F# G  A
        For I have seen the speed of things
