1. So it goes, history shows, deserts must expand,

E B7 - A E A B7 E

camels sail like wooden ships, like women on the strand.

E B7 A - E A B7 E

There's a sand on second avenue, and the wind blows like a train,

E B7 A E A B7 E

taxis line up like a string of pearls around the block again.

B7 A

I remember everything and every window pane,

B7 A Am

every word came back to me like I was Superman.

E B7 A E

But then I saw your face across the street

A B7 E

through the tears of Hercules.

2. There's a bus that leaves at eighty fifty, another one at ten.

E B7 A E A B7 E

Should I climb aboard, risk everything and ride it to the end ?

E B7 A E - A B7 E

Watch the heels like rollercoasters, up against the sky,

E B7 A E A B7 E

and wish that you were here by me, so close that I could die.

B7 A

You said love wrecks everything, and none of us survive,

B7 A Am

but I got over you last night in sadness, empty dies.

E B7 A E

But then I saw your face across the street

A B7 E

through the tears of Hercules.
