Cemetery Gates

[Intro:] C D C D C D C D G G A dreaded sunny day C So I meet you at the cemetery gates D Em D C Keats and Yeats are on your side G A dreaded sunny day C So I meet you at the cemetery gates D Em D C Keats and Yeats are on your side D G While Wilde is on mine G C So we go inside and we gravely read the stones D All those people all those lives Em D C Where are they now? G With loves, with hates C And passions just like mine They were born D And then they lived Em D C And then they died Which seems so unfair D G And I want to cry Bm You say: "ere thrice the sun hath door G Salutation to the dawn" Bm G And you claim these words as your own C D But I'm well read, have heard them said Em C A hundred times (maybe less, maybe more) G If you must write prose and poems C The words you use should be your own D Em D C Don't plagiarise or take "on loan" G There's always someone, somwhere C With a big nose, who knows D And who trips you up and laughs Em D C When you fall D Who'll trip you up and laugh G When you fall Bm G You say: "ere long done do does did" Bm G Words which could only be your own C You then produce the text D From whence was ripped Em C (some dizzy whore, 1804) G A dreaded sunny day So let's go where we're happy C And I meet you at the cemetery gates D Em D C Keats and Yeats are on your side G A dreaded sunny day So let's go where we're wanted C And I meet you at the cemetery gates D Em D C Keats and Yeats are on your side - but you lose D G While Wilde is on mine (Then it ends the same as intro)
