Intro: A D A D Bm D Bm A x2
        D
Meet me at
St. Nicholas Among the oaks Behind the church
               Em
That sway like pig-tailed girls
As 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 old
Under 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
