C            G                    Dm                         G
  One burning afternoon, under the waxing jurisdiction of the harvest moon

           C           G
We took a ride, we went far away

      Dm                           G
And I remember it as though it were yesterday

C                        G
  The stereo played songs we both knew

     Dm                            G
And I reached my arm around to touch you

             C       G
I felt the sun burning into me

         Dm                           G
And I knew we'd find the physic for my malady

F                      G              C           C
  Your hair caught the sunlight as you opened the door

F                  G                      C                  Am
  And I'd never seen your hair looking quite that way before

F                       G                             C
  I heard the parakeets punctuate the moment with their

            Am
Shrieks and cries

F              G             C                     Am
  I saw the reptile cages reflected in your blue eyes

               F                   G
Their green bodies conspiring therein

          C                       Am
To form a separate universe where it was no sin

      F                      G
To want what I wanted right then and there
