Bm F#
Play me old king cole
E F#
That I may join with you,
A D
All your hearts now seem so far from me
A
It hardly seems to matter now.
Bm F#
And the nurse will tell you lies
E F#
Of a kingdom beyond the skies.
A D
But I am lost within this half-world,
A
It hardly seems to matter now.
[Chorus]
E
Play me my song.
F#
Here it comes again.
E
Play me my song.
F#
Here it comes again.

[Verse]
F#m B
Old king cole was a merry old soul,
D F#m
And a merry old soul was he.
So he called for his pipe,
B
And he called for his bowl,
D F#m
And he called for his fiddlers three.
F#m E
But the clock, tick-tock,
D
On the mantlepiece -
And I want, and I feel, and I know, and I touch,
E F#
Her warmth...

Brush back your hair, and let me get to know your flesh.
