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