Chords

Em7		         G
Somebody's walking, oh, somebody's walking

C
There on the grave of our love

    Em7		            G                   C
And somebody's kicking the dust and the ashes away

D			    G			   Am
Why don't they just let it die and fade and grow cold again

D			G			  Am
Better our footsteps divide and our memory grow old again

   Em7  Bm   Am    Em7  Bm   Am     
Oh long dead love, long dead love

C			D
How much dirt must you shovel on what's already dead

C			         D
Don't send flowers to remember, send thorns instead

C		 	      D                         Em7
And who's that polishing the tombstone over our heads, ohh
Somebody's dancing on our sad misfortune Oh there on the grave of our love And somebody's sweeping the splinters of my broken heart away Why don't they just let it die and fade and grow cold again Better our footsteps divide and our memory grow old again Oh long dead love, long dead love It's been so long it's even hard to find the right place Was it you who paid for Burke and Hare to come in on the case You know grave-robbing is a sin and this is a crying disgrace
Am7                                          Em7
Deep in the night, the cruel intention comes stealing

Am7                                          Em7
Deep in the night, I can't close my eyes for that feeling
Oh long dead love, Long dead love... by: José Duarte [email protected]
