Intro: A D A D Bm D Bm A (2x) 

        D 
Meet me at 
St. Nicholas 
Among the oaks 
Behind the church 
  
               Em 
That sway like pig-tailed girls 

As summer wind whistles 
            D 
Around your bare-skin knees 
         A 
And the forsythia leaves 

       D 
In the shade 
Lay with me 
Tickled by 
The feather reed 

                 Em 
That's where the trees grow old 

Under the ivy's hold 
          D 
As you in my two arms 
         A 
Equally safe from harm 

         Em 
And in a hazy day dream 
           G  
Our bodies married the stream 
        Bm                        A 
And we grow down into pebbles and silt 

          Em 
The water ran from the fields 
          G 
Until the oceans we filled 
              D                    A 
And found the sea-bed the comfiest quilt 

               Em                            G 
There was more life in the weeds than in the few hundred seats 
             Bm                      A 
In rows from transept to chancel to nave 
               Em                             G 
And when their anger had paused, I turned and answered their calls 
               Bm                A 
With your just audience, I'm the applause 
   Em                 G 
We take on the burden of all these sad-eyed children 
     Bm                    A 
With lilies bunched in our hands 
    Em                  G 
We fake our concern and speak softly as the surgeon 
      Bm                 A 
Tells wife to cancel her plans 

Em                    G 
Take a body to water, take a body to tundra 
Bm                       A 
Just take me with you as well
