Rufus McGarrigle Wainwright (born 22 July 1973) is a Canadian-American singer and songwriter.
Wainwright was born in Rhinebeck, New York, USA, to folk singers Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle (they divorced while he was a child). He began to play the piano at age six, and by age thirteen he was touring with his sister Martha Wainwright, mother Kate, and aunt Anna as the McGarrigle Sisters and Family.

This is a typical Wainwright arrangement, where tons of things are going on creating this almost impenetrable layer of sound. Like the bass that romps around almost regardless of the chords. I've transcribed the cool bass line in guitar pro. All bassists, check it out, it's brilliant: But beneath the massive layer you can actually find some pretty simple chords. That's what I've done here.

You can go out dancing And I'll write about you, dancing without you And I'll shed a tear between my legs
When you were here, I missed you Now that you're away, I'm out there without you And I shed a tear between my legs
Though we live in the same city You live in another state far away from me and all of my unfaded charms
But when the rocket ships all fall And the bridges, they all buckle And everybody's packing up their station wagons There's a number you can call Like a breast that you can suckle And we quietly will exit as it all is happening
Again, I'm afraid of one thing Will I walk away from love knowing nothing? Wearing my heart between my legs? But when I know you're naked Lying on the bed while I'm at the piano All I can say is I can't fake it
When the rocket ships all fall And the bridges, they all buckle And everybody's packing up their station wagons There's a number you can call Like a breast that you can suckle And we quietly will exit as it all is happening again
'Cause there's a river running underground Underneath the town towards the sea That only I know all about On which from this city we can flee
