Long Dead Love Richard Thompson
[Em7]Somebody's walking, oh, s[G]omebody's walking
[C]There on the grave of our love
And [Em7]somebody's kicking the d[G]ust and the ashes aw[C]ay
[D]Why don't they just let it d[G]ie and fade and grow co[Am]ld again
[D]Better our footsteps div[G]ide and our memory grow ol[Am]d again
Oh [Em7]long [Bm]dead [Am]love, [Em7]long [Bm]dead [Am]love
[C]How much dirt must you s[D]hovel on what's already dead
[C]Don't send flowers to remember, s[D]end thorns instead
[C]And who's that polishing the t[D]ombstone over our heads, o[Em7]hh
Somebody's dancing on our sad misfortune
Oh there on the grave of our love
And somebody's sweeping the splinters of my broken heart away
Why don't they just let it die and fade and grow cold again
Better our footsteps divide and our memory grow old again
Oh long dead love, long dead love
It's been so long it's even hard to find the right place
Was it you who paid for Burke and Hare to come in on the case
You know grave-robbing is a sin and this is a crying disgrace
[Am7]Deep in the night, the cruel intention comes [Em7]stealing
[Am7]Deep in the night, I can't close my eyes for [Em7]that feeling
Oh long dead love, Long dead love...
