Phil Ochs - I've Had Her lyrics
Your rating:
G C G C G The night air is inviting you to walk out on the trail Em You will not fail Am D You will not fail G C G C G And by the beach a lady sails a ship without a sail Em And you reach out for her Am D And you reach out for her C D But, I've had her C D I've had her G She's nothing Down the cliffs you clamber and you tumble to the shore The warm waves roar The warm waves roar And on the reef a mermaid siren screams one perfume more And she shouts to you Through the foam she shouts to you But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing The players at the party are prepared to take a chance They drop their pants They drop their pants In the corner, she's so crystaline no one dares to ask a dance And she calls out to you And she calls out to you But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing In the prison of your broken bed you dribble in a dream And find a queen And find a queen But your sleep is sadly stolen by the face that is a stream That's flowing out to you She's flowing out to you But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing The vision of the seven veils are racing down the road Signs are slow The signs are slow But beauty is the mistress and the beauty you've been told You'd speed the route for her You'd speed the route for her But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing The fog has changed the city to a friendly frightened fawn The shades are drawn The shades are drawn To posess her misty madness you would gladly duel the dawn And fade out to her And fade out to her But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing The circus clown, he hides a tear beneath his pained smile And charms a child And charms a child While the dancing girls and prancing horse blows kisses down the aisle You'd roll about for her You'd roll about for her But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing All alone, the flaming field, your fairy love is spread Your time has fled Your time has fled Now the only way to touch her is the gun beside your head Now there's now doubt for her Now there's now doubt for her But, I've had her I've had her She's nothing
