E 
Mmh, yes, 

D6/9             Cmaj7            D6/9              E 
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth 
                   D6/9  Cmaj7 D6/9  E      
Going deep South, go down, mmh, yes, 
                        D6/9    
Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies 
    Cmaj7             D6/9           
Off of Howth Head and into the flesh, mmh, yes, 

Am                            D6/9 
He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes, 
Am                            D6/9     E 
But now I've powers o'er a woman's body, yes.

         D G6       A             E 
Stepping out of the page into the sensual world.

Stepping out...

         D6/9            Cmaj7       
To where the water and the earth caress 
        D6/9          E 
And the down of a peach says mmh, yes, 
     D6/9          Cmaj7 
Do I look for those millionaires 
       D6/9        E 
Like a Machiavellian girl would 
             D6/9 Cmaj7 D6/9  E 
When I could wear...... a sunset? mmh, yes, 

Am                     D6/9 
And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world 
Am                     D6/9                    E 
You don't need words--just one kiss, then another.
