Well the cat is in amongst the pigeons and the pigeons are in the pie,
A E D A E
and the pie is on the kitchen table and nobody at all is eating,
A E D A E
and the apple is in my eye and my eye is somewhere else,
A E D A E
and my lips are shaped to fit a lie and the snake is in the grass
Dbm F#m
and your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve
D A
it's time for me to leave, your heart is on your sleeve,
Dbm F#m
your heart is on your sleeve, your heart is on your sleeve,
D E
it's time for me to leave, time for me to leave, time for me to leave
A E D A E
and the snake he sees the apple and the snake he knows my eye,
A E D A E
and the cat he sees the pigeons but he doesn't see the pie,
A E D A E
that nobody at all is eating though the knives are on the table,
A E D A E
the cards are in my pocket and your heart is on your sleeve
