Intro: A D A D Bm D Bm A x2
D
Meet me atSt. Nicholas
Among the oaks
Behind the church
Em
That sway like pig-tailed girlsAs summer wind whistles
D Around your bare-skin knees A And the forsythia leaves D In the shade
Lay with me
Tickled by
The feather reed
Em
That's where the trees grow oldUnder the ivy's hold
D As you in my two arms A Equally safe from harm Em And in a hazy day dream G Our bodies married the stream Bm A And we grow down into pebbles and silt Em The water ran from the fields G Until the oceans we filled D A And found the sea-bed the comfiest quilt Em G There was more life in the weeds than in the few hundred seats Bm A In rows from transept to chancel to nave Em G And when their anger had paused, I turned and answered their calls Bm A With your just audience, I'm the applause Em G We take on the burden of all these sad-eyed children Bm A With lilies bunched in our hands Em G We fake our concern and speak softly as the surgeon Bm A Tells wife to cancel her plans Em G Take a body to water, take a body to tundra Bm A Just take me with you as well
