[Intro] G Am7 G C G Am7 G C [Verse 1]
       G           Am7
I love Sydney, and Marlow,

    G       C            G          Am7         G     C
And often I borrow their words to express how I feel.

       G        Am7
I love poems of mystery,

G        C        G          Am7      D
Fantasy, history, oh what seductive appeal.
[Pre-chorus]
   Dm7     G7         C  Fmaj7 Bb   E7       A7
At night, alone in my bedroom, satisfying my need.

    D           Dsus2  D7       Dsus4  A7   Am7 A7
The candlelight fire ignites my desire,  to read.
[Chorus]
G   A                                          D
Oh, every time I hear a perfect rhyme I get all tingly

          Gm    C                                          F        D7
Because I know, that to find a perfect rhyme is not an easy thingly.

G      Am7         G            C
I love places that words let me go

G          Am7           G             C
I love the way that your words move me so

G             Am7            G           F    C
No words have touched me the way that yours do

    G D
And I love…
[Break]
G   Gm                                      G      Gm
You are really doing something to me mister poetry man

                                      G
Oh forgive me, I never get to discuss poems in this way

Am7          G                       C            G                           Am7
Oh it’s okay, I just never knew that poetry could affect someone the way it affects me

G    G
  Me neither
[Verse 2]
         G            Am7         G          C
It’s the end all, the be all. Oh, you oughta see all

    G            Am7        G          C
The books that I have on my shelf. Me too

       G           Am7         G            C         G       Am7        G    D
I find pleasure perusing those writings and musing so often I pleasure myself
[Pre-chorus]
D7    G7          C     Fmaj7  Bb    E7            A7
Wait, that didn’t sound right. No, I know what you mean

     D               Dsus2         D7       Dsus4          A7
When I’m deep in the throes of impassionate prose, I could scream

A7
You scream? Yeah! So do I! Ahh!
[Chorus]
G     A                                    D
Oh, I love a lilting line of lyrical alliteration. (Who doesn’t love alliteration?)

                  Gm    C                                     F
And then I’m like well, when the phrases come together like a consummation

             D7
(It’s sweet elation)

G      Am7         G            C
I love places that words let me go

G          Am7           G             C
I love the way that your words move me so

G            Am7           G          F C
I love, that you feel, the same way I do

    G D
And I love…

              G D
You know that I love,

              Am7 D    G Am7 G C
You know that I   love,

       G
Me too!
