/ Rufus Wainwright / I think this song is very hard to interpret, but I've
/ Peach Trees / read a fair try by "Johndoux" who seemingly knows what
/ Want Two / he's talking about. Just follow this link:

The chords I've indicated in the right side of the page
is the way Rufus plays them live in the videos on youtube.
It's not precisely the way they're played on the record,
but they work great for an acoustic version. Enjoy ;)

Is true love a trip to Chinatown
Or being held in one's opium gaze
Under the peach trees
There I'll sit and wait
Is true love a long walk through Bryant Park
Or being held in the month of May
Under the peach trees
Under the peach trees
Under the peach trees
There I will be
Will be until you come and get me
Cause I'm so tired of waiting in restaurants
Reading the critics and comics alone
With a waiter with a face made for currency
Like a coin in ancient Rome
And I really do wish you were here next to me
'Cause I'm going to see James Dean
There I will be
Under the peach trees
Under the peach trees
Under, under, under the peach trees with him
