[Intro]
[Main Theme]
E D
Saint Stephen with a rose,
A E
In and out of the garden he goes,
E D
Country garden in the wind and the rain,
A
Wherever he goes the people all complain.
E D
Did Stephen prospered in his time?
A E
Well he may and he may decline.
E D
Did it matter, does it now?
A B
Stephen would answer if he only knew how.
[B Lick]
E D
Wishing well with a golden bell,
A E
Bucket hanging clear to hell,
E D
Hell halfway twixt now and then,
A
Stephen fill it up and lower down and lower down again.
[Bridge]
E D A E
Lady finger, dipped in moonlight,
D A E D
Writing "What for?" across the morning sky.
E D A E
Sunlight splatters, dawn with answer,
D A E D
Darkness shrugs and bids the day goodbye.
E D A E
Speeding arrow, sharp and narrow,
D A E D
What a lot of fleeting matters you have spurned.
E D A E
Several seasons with their treasons,
D A E D
Wrap the babe in scarlet colors, call it your own.
[Main Theme]
E D
Did he doubt or did he try?
A E
Answers aplenty in the bye and bye,
E D
Talk about your plenty, talk about your ills,
A
One man gathers what another man spills.
E D
Saint Stephen will remain,
A E
All he's lost he shall regain,
E D
Seashore washed by the suds and foam,
A
Been here so long, he's got to calling it home.
E
Fortune comes a crawlin', calliope woman,
D A E
Spinnin' that curious sense of your own.
E D
Can you answer? Yes I can.
A E D E
But what would be the answer to the answer man?
