Lovetown
Peter Gabriel
Em C Am
People go naked, and pick up these trails
Em C Am
someone before me, laid down these rails
Bm Em
when it’s loaded up too heavy,
C D Em
this engine, fails-- in lovetown
D Em
I can’t settle down-
D Em D
and do those teeth, still match the wound
C D Em
take a good look around in lovetown
D Em D Em
lookin’ in lovetown this is lovetown
Em C Am
Sometimes, you’re stormy water on which I pour my oil
Em C Am
in each others shadow, the roots reach into the soil
Bm Em
all these knots, so tightly tied,
C D Em
we could not uncoil-- in lovetown
D Em
no place to settle down-
D Em D
and do those teeth, still match the wound
C D Em
take a good look around in lovetown
D Em D Em
this is lovetown lookin’ in lovetown
Em Am D Em
Who’s, lonely lips, will find these hidden scars
Em Am D Em
Who’s, seen the kisses, left in dimlit bars
Em Am D Em
Who’s, out in the streets, looking for love like ours
Em C Am
Who’s, looking in lovetown, to-night----------
Em C Am
Am Em C Am
Have you got what you want
Am Em C Am
have you got what you need
C Am
with what you did, and what you saw----
Em C Am
did you find, you, needed more---
Em C Am
have you got, what, you came for---
Em C Am Em
are you really so sure--- are you really so sure
D Em D Em
lookin’ in lovetown this is lovetown
D Em D Em
livin’ in lovetown yeah yeah yeah
