              Bm                C7    Fm           Eb      DbAnd sometimes when the night is slow, the wretched and the meek,
          Bm                C7  Db         Eb     Fmwe gather up our hearts and go, a thousand kisses deep.
 
            Fm              C7                 FmConfined to sex, we pressed against the limits of the sea,
            Fm             C7    DbI saw there were no oceans there for scavengers like me.
          Bm             C7    Fm              Eb    DbI made it to the forward deck, I blessed our remnant fleet,
            Bm            C7      Db         Eb     Fmand then consented to be wrecked, a thousand kisses deep.
 
            Fm                  C7                  FmI'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed, I'm back on Boogie Street,
             Fm                 C7                   DbI guess they won't exchange the gifts that you were meant to keep.
          Bm                C7   Fm          Eb      DbAnd quiet is the thought of you, the file on you complete,
            Bm           C7  Db         Eb     Fmexcept what we forgot to do, a thousand kisses deep.
