Sunbeam shone, mousy girl on the e G nd pew
You'd stay h Em ome oh if only I'd l Bm et you

Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie
Municipal pool, you're a junior life s G aver
And your f Em riends are all serious ra Bm vers
Le Pas Am tie de la Bourgeoi D sie
Reading Judy B Em lume
But you came too s A oon
You're too t Em all, much too tall for a b G oyfriend
They run and h Em ide, from your buckteeth and sp Bm lit ends
Don't be sc Am ared of the books you've r D ead
You're the heroi Em ne, you'll be doing f A ine
Wouldn't you l C ike to get away?
Bestowing the me G mory of good and evil
O D n the ones you left behind
Em The heartless swine
A, Em, A, Em, A, Em, Em, Em
And you love like nobody arou G nd you
How you l Em ove, and a halo surr Bm ounds you
Le Pas Am tie de la Bourgeoi D sie
In the Autumn co Em ol say cheerio to sc A hool
Listen D Em ear, I've been watching you late G ly
If I s Em aid all these things you would h Bm ate me
Le Pas Am tie de la Bourgeoi D sie
At the Church ba Em zaar I nearly went too f A ar
Wouldn't you li C ke to get away
Kerouac's be G ckoning with open arms
And o D pen fields of eucalyptus w Em estward bound
Wouldn't you li C ke to get away
Give yourself G up to the allure of
Catcher D In The Rye
The future's swathed in S Em tars and Stripes
