The Librarian by Hefner
Intro: G D7
G D7
He started to woo her in the most peculiar way,
D7 G
The Librarian's dress was a fawnish shade of grey,
G D7
The books he was to borrow he would surely never read,
D7 G
They had an intellectual caliber, he hoped
that she would see.
Em Am
He planned to take her home to bed some day,
C
He'd smooth her goose bumped skin while she
G G/F#
lay,
Em Am
But the unspoken thing they both knew,
C
Whilst he'd dream of her often she would forget
D
in just ten minutes.
G Em C
Her beauty has not truly been seen until her
D C G
beauty's been seen by his tired eyes,
G Em C
Her tears have not truly been dried until her
D C G
tears have been dried on his tattered shirt sleeves.
G D7
He was beginning to irritate so she made him go away,
D7 G
The smallest cruelest insults she ignored his subtle ways.
G D7
The deftly silence let him know his efforts were in vain,
D7 G
Did the words ever exist and if so could he find them.
Em Am
He planned to take her home to bed some day,
C
He'd smooth her goose bumped skin while she
G G/F#
lay,
Em Am
But the unspoken thing they both knew,
C
Whilst he'd dream of her often she would forget
D
in just ten minutes.
G Em C
Her beauty has not truly been seen until her
D C G
beauty's been seen by his tired eyes,
G Em C
Her tears have not truly been dried until her
D C G
tears have been dried on his tattered shirt sleeves.
G Em C
Her body has not truly been stripped till her
D C G
clothes have been ripped by his nail bitten
G
fingers,
G Em C
Her beauty has not truly been seen till her
D C G
beauty's been seen by his tired eyes.
G Em C
and oh, on the loneliest of nights
D C G
he will never hold her tight he will never kiss her eyelids
