Lovetown 

Peter Gabriel


Em                     C                   Am
    People go naked,     and pick up these trails
Em                     C                  Am
    someone before me,    laid down these rails
Bm                      Em
when it’s loaded up too heavy,
C             D                Em
this engine,  fails--   in lovetown
D           Em              
    I can’t settle down-       
D                Em                      D
    and do those teeth,  still match the wound
       C                  D        Em
take a good look around     in lovetown

D              Em               D         Em      
    lookin’ in lovetown           this is lovetown

Em                              C                    Am
Sometimes, you’re stormy water    on which I pour my oil
Em                       C                         Am
in each others shadow,    the roots reach into the soil
Bm                           Em
 all these knots, so tightly tied,
C                  D                 Em
    we could not uncoil--     in lovetown
D           Em               
no place to settle down-       
D               Em                     D
   and do those teeth, still match the wound
       C                   D             Em
take a good look around           in lovetown
 
D              Em              D             Em
       this is lovetown           lookin’ in lovetown                  


Em             Am              D                 Em
Who’s,  lonely lips,      will find these hidden scars
Em               Am            D               Em
Who’s,  seen the kisses,        left in dimlit bars
Em                 Am           D                      Em
Who’s,  out in the streets,      looking for love like ours
Em                 C                 Am
Who’s,  looking in lovetown,      to-night----------

Em         C          Am

Am                    Em        C        Am
Have you got what you want
Am                    Em        C        Am
have you got what you need
              C                 Am
with what you did, and what you saw----
        Em          C       Am
did you find, you,  needed  more---
         Em         C        Am
have you got, what, you came for---
                  Em          C          Am                 Em
are you really so sure---                 are you really so sure

D             Em             D            Em      
   lookin’ in lovetown            this is lovetown
D             Em             D            Em
   livin’ in  lovetown          yeah yeah yeah
