Am               G
Dark and lonely, lonely man
       Am                    Em         
"Turn around pick a door and take your chance"
(G/)Am                        G
The innocent breeze whispered in his ear
 Am
"Promises, promises..." the old man leered

Am               G
Dark and lonely, lonely man
        Am                    Em
"Take a bud from my side" the thin vine cried
(G/)Am                     G
The sinuous growth nestled in his hair
       Am               
"Let me go, let me be" the man despairs

Am               G
Dark and lonely, lonely man
Am                             Em
"Where have you been?" the old tree began
        Am                          G
"I have never known fear except for you, sad friend"
         Am                          
"I can't move, I can't move" he said, about the bend

Light foot footstep shadow long secrets
Cover your face with your hats and your sequins
Light foot footstep shadow long gone
Cover your face when you're singing that song
Light foot footstep shadow long secrets
Cover your face with your hats and your sequins
Light foot footstep shadow long gone
Cover your face when you're singing that song

Am               G
Dark and lonely, lonely man
 Am                       Em
"Taste of my fruit if you only can"
(G/)Am                        G
Said the patient tree made of elephant wood,
         Am                         
"I'm not hungry, won't eat, and I'm gone for good"

Am               G
Dark and lonely, lonely man
 Am                             Em
"Will you ever smile?" said the breeze again
 (G/)Am                          G
"Someday I think you will if you let us in"
      Am
"I'll try, I'll try" he whispered again
