Richard Shindell - May


INTRO: E minorEm  G+G C majorC  E minorEm G+G C majorC

E minorEm         C majorC
Listen closely, May
   E minorEm        C majorC    D MajorD
This phone may not be safe
       C majorC
I have been betrayed
  D MajorD      C majorC
And I must leave today

E minorEm       C majorC
Where, I cannot say
E minorEm       C majorC
Somewhere far away
D MajorD      C majorC
Maybe to the States
   D MajorD      C majorC
Where no one knows my face


CHORUS:
  G+G
So May, take care of the kids
      D MajorD
Tell them I love them
        C majorC
I'll send a few quid when I can
 G+G
I know, this is no kind of life
           D MajorD
But you've got to be strong
       C majorC        E minorEm  G+G C majorC  E minorEm  G+G C majorC
When you're a fugitive's wife


  E minorEm        C majorC
I'm calling from some booth
  E minorEm       C majorC
And no, I can't come home
D MajorD        C majorC
This is not goodbye
 D MajorD      C majorC
I love you more than life

CHORUS:
  G+G
So May, take care of the kids
      D MajorD
Tell them I love them
        C majorC
I'll send a few quid when I can
 G+G
I know, this is no kind of life
           D MajorD
But you've got to be strong
       C majorC        E minorEm  G+G C majorC  E minorEm  G+G C majorC  E minorEm
When you're a fugitive's wife


Something is not right
             C majorC    D MajorD
The streets are much too quiet
          C majorC
The shops all locked up tight
    D MajorD      C majorC
There's not one soul in sight


CHORUS:
  G+G
And May, take care of the kids
      D MajorD
Tell them I love them
        C majorC
I'll send a few quid when I can
 G+G
I know, this is no kind of life
           D MajorD
But you've got to be strong
       C majorC
When you're a fugitive's wife
  G+G
And May, they've got me in sight
There's at least twenty-five
It's down to a fight or a flight
May
