verse 1
Dm
Though by the path I lead The passing of time and the pouring of tea
Bb F C
Are all I've lately seen
Dm
Until our temporal bridge be burned Until our anchor stocks hold firm
Bb F C
Where the hands of clocks don't turn, O my soul
Dm
May our lips remain discreet While your traps are beneath our feet--
Bb F C
but how long before our tails are caught
Dm
by our "free" thought?
Bb C Bb
Sugar in the cane, candles low
Gm F Gm F
Kettle low on the flame for the teapot? No
Bb C Bb Dm
Sugar in the cane, candles low
verse 2
F
On the Streets of Mexican Wars
Eb
I battle with the memory of a first fight
F
In our contemptible youth, quoted White Nights
Eb
Thinking I?d get rid of you, Waited with a stone in my hand
Bb
but you were right and Nature had another plan
Dm
Nature had another plan
Bb C Bb
Sugar in the cane, candles low
Gm F Gm F
On the West End Bridge looking down at the Ohio
Bb C Bb
Sugar in the cane, candles low
Gm F Gm F
You panic like a mouse when the lights go on
Bb Dm
Sugar in the cane, candles low
