D          Am                 G
There is a rumor going 'round
D          Am             G
That Desdemona's Leaving Town

Esus4                   E
She got stuck in the Sailor's Knot
       Am           D
And it dragged her around
Esus4                  E          Esus4
But now she's upright, out of our sight

Everyday another stray'll find its way out of the pound:

Desdemona went over the hill to be another man's wife

            C              F
She's gonna get to see the stars upon a platter
      Am                   D
Gonna bet she'll meet the man of her dreams
Em
She's such a go-getter
   A
And we won't ever forget her no!

D Am G x2

Verse 2:
D          Am                G
They put a siren in the rain
D             Am         G
That took our Desdemona home again

Esus4                         E       Am                             D
This time she looked different and it wasn't just the shackles and chains
Esus4
Right in the spot heart used to be

Pre-Chorus:
    Dm/F      Dm/G  Dm/F      Dm/E      Fm/C                G/B
The laundry's going round and round and round and round and round again

Chorus:
Am                Am7/G                       D7/F#  F G
Desdemona gone to settle the bill of her former life
Am             Am7/G                 D7/F#            F G
Desdemona went over the hill to be another man's wife

               C                F
And now she'll find her road is lined with silver arrows
            Am                D
And they'll guide her to the end of her dream
Em
You're gone for good babe
A
But you'll live forever on the front page
