[VERSE 1]
G/B C F#/A# B
Lake Hope was calling me
C D G/B B
October witnesses were there
G/B C F#/A# B
So-o I took her with me
C D G/B B
I knew just what would occur there
C D G/B
That's why I had to take her there
C D B Em
So I called on our Michael, it was so far
C D G/B B
And he was willing to drive us
C D
Gathered up her paintbrushes
B Em
Ran to the car
C D G/B B
But for the squirrels it was quiet
[VERSE 2]
G/B C F#/A# B
Lake Hope rea-a-lity
C D G/B B
Seems so ethereal floating
G/B C F#/A# B
And the fina-a-lity
C D
Of her embrace
G/B B
Left me groping
C D G/B
Satisfied yes, but still groping
C D B Em
For the secret of metaphysical joy
C D G/B B
There in her body's caresses
C D
Love is but to play with
B Em
B girl like a toy
C D G/B B
Yes, but nobody confesses
[VERSE 3]
G/B C F#/A# B
Lake Hope was calling me
C D G/B B
I knew just what would occur there
G/B C F#/A# B
So-o I took her with me
C D G/B B
Only to do it with her there
C D G/B
That's why I couldn't take you there…
