Pyotr

[Verso 1]
 
B    Bbm                Abm             F# 
Bare breasted, you make love in the turret. 
B      Bbm         Abm               F# 
I feel each single thrust that you take. 
B  Bbm              Abm              F# 
In silence, I watch on from the bastion. 
B   Bbm               Abm        F# 
Entranced, I make myself look away. 
 


[Verso 2]
 
B    Bbm              Abm              F# 
Bare breasted, making love in the turret. 
B           Bbm         Abm          F# 
I've never loved nobody other than you. 
B       Bbm           Abm             F# 
And in silence, I can feel as you quiver. 
B          Bbm          Abm          F# 
Keep quiet for you know what he'll do. 
B          Bbm          Abm          F#

[Verso 3]
 
B          Bbm          Abm          F# 
And I know I am not the man you desire. 
B          Bbm             Abm            F# 
I know you think that I am some kind of fool. 
B          Bbm               Abm           F# 
And I know you would gaze in his eyes forever. 
B          Bbm             Abm          F# 
"I figured out just how to give that to you." 
B          Bbm          Abm          F#

[Verso 4]
 
B       Bbm              Abm               F# 
When he found us in the western wing sleeping. 
B            Bbm                Abm          F# 
You cried at all the things you thought he would do. 
B     Bbm             Abm               F# 
And I tell you in the heat of the scuffle, 
B       Bbm           Abm            F# 
"Nobody ever takes my eyes off of you." 
 


[Verso 5]
 
B       Bbm                Abm          F# 
And, oh Catherine, how you run me my fever. 
B             Bbm             Abm            F# 
Oh Catherine, tell me, was it worth it for him? 
B         Bbm            Abm                 F# 
And these gallows are no place for the stubborn, 
B                  Bbm       Abm          F# 
just you and your lover as a dark souvenir. 
B          Bbm          Abm          F#

She sees me on display inside the museum 
B            Bbm          Abm           F# 
comes every morning and again when she can. 
B             Bbm                 Abm              F# 
Strokes her blistered hand across my glass container, 
B                Bbm             Abm             F# 
saying, "It's so good to see you back here, again." 
B          Bbm          Abm          F#
