Pleasant Street - by Tim Buckley
Album - Happy Sad

Em                 Em7
You don't remember what to say
Cmaj7              Em
You don't remember what to do
Em                 Em7
You don't remember where to go
Cmaj7              Em
You don't remember what to choose
Em         Em7         Cmaj7              Em    Em7   Cmaj7 Em
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down, down, down, down

Chorus:
G
All the stony people
         B7
Walking 'round in Christian licorice clothes
Em
I can't hesitate
G                             Em Em7 Cmaj7 Em
And I can't wait For Pleasant Street

Em           Em7            Cmaj7     Em
The sunshine reminds you of concreted skies
Em                   Em7     Cmaj7              Em
You thought you were flying but you opened your eyes
Em                     Em7     Cmaj7               Em
And you found yourself falling back to yesterday's lies
Em     Em7              Cmaj                Em
Hello, Pleasant Street, you know she's back again
Em         Em7        Cmaj7               Em    Em7   Cmaj7 Em
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down, down, down, down

(Chorus)
Em           Em7       Cmaj7         Em
At twilight your lover comes to your room
Em                    Em7        Cmaj7             Em
He'll spin you, he'll weave you 'round his emerald loom
Em                Em7     Cmaj7          Em
And softly you'll whisper all around his ear
Em        Em7 Cmaj7           Em
"Sweet lover, I love Pleasant Street
Em           Em7    Cmaj7                      Em    Em7   Cmaj7 Em
I wheel, I steal, I feel my way down to kneel. down, down, down, down

(Chorus)

You don't remember what to say
You don't remember what to do
You don't remember which way to go
You don't remember who to choose
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down, down, down down
