Lover's Walk
Words & Music by: Elvis Costello
From the album: TRUST

define:
n.c.    = no chord

Comment:
This song, because of the rhythmic nature and 
paucity of chord changes, might not work well 
as a piece for singer and solo guitar.

INTRO:
A G A G A G A G

A
I won't walk with my head bowed
(Be on) Beyond caution where lovers walk
My love walks where three's a crowd
                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

A
Lovers walk, lovers scramble
Beyond caution where the lovers walk
Lovers step, shuffle and gamble
                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

A
Lovers trip, lovers stumble
Lovers dip, lovers fumble
Lovers lip where love has crumbled
                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

n.c.
Lovers strut, lovers stroll, lovers leap
Lovers late, lovers wait
Making promises that they can't keep
Lovers link up arm and arm
Lovers slink up, lovers charm
Lovers drink up and come to harm
                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

A
Love is gone and it's no one's fault
Love has stopped here, lovers halt
Lovers don't walk, lovers run
Will you look what love has done
Will you look what love has done
Will you look what love has done
                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

A                                      A G A G A G
Now love's limping on a lover's crutch
A
Looking for a hand with a personal touch
A                                 A G A G A G
Beyond caution where lovers walk

Elvis Costello Inspired Music
Official Website: http://myspace.com/quotingnapoleon Plastic America by Quoting Napoleon John Salazar - Vocals Sam Kovic - Guitar Guy Wettstein - Bass Steve Turmell - Drums Elvis Costello Inspired Music Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus 25 August 1954) is an English musician and singer-songwriter, with Irish ancestry. Costello came to prominence as an early participant in London's pub rock scene in the mid-1970s, and later became associated with the punk rock and New Wave musical genres, before establishing his own unique voice in the 1980s. Steeped in wordplay, the vocabulary of Costello's lyrics is broader than that of most popular songs, and his music has drawn on dozens of genres. Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote, "Costello, the pop encyclopedia, can reinvent the past in his own image". http://www.elviscostello.com See Also: Mystery Dance, Pay It Back, I'm Not Angry, Waiting For The End Of The World, Watching The Detectives, No Action, Living In Paradise, Radio Sweetheart, Stranger In The House, Welcome To The Working Week, Blue Minute, Miracle Man, Call On Me, The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes,I Don't Want To Go Home, I Hear A Melody, Blame It On Cain, No Dancing, Night Rally, Hoover Factory,.

Elvis Costello & The Attractions - High Fidelity
Some things you never get used to Even though you're feeling like another man There's nothing that he can do for you To shut me away as you walk through Lovers laughing in their amateur hour Holding hands in the corridors of power Even though I'm with somebody else right now High fidelity Can you hear me? There's a new kind of dedication Maybe you'll find it down the tunnel Maybe I got above my station Maybe you're only changing channel Even though you're nowhere near me And I know you kiss him so sincerely now Even though the signal's indistinct And you worry what silly people think Who just can't wait to feel so frozen out I bet he thinks that he was chosen out of millions I suppose he'll never know about High fidelity Can you hear me?

Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Everyday I Write The Book
Live Lip Sync, 1983 Don't tell me you don't know what love is When you're old enough to know better When you find strange hands in your sweater When your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote I'm a man with a mission in two or three editions And I'm giving you a longing look Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book Chapter One we didn't really get along Chapter Two I think I fell in love with you You said you'd stand by me in the middle of Chapter Three But you were up to your old tricks in Chapters Four, Five and Six The way you walk The way you talk, and try to kiss me, and laugh In four or five paragraphs All your compliments and your cutting remarks Are captured here in my quotation marks Don't tell me you don't know the difference Between a lover and a fighter With my pen and my electric typewriter Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal I'd still own the film rights and be working on the sequel

Elvis Costello - Everyday I Write the Book - Malvasio
