A                                                       D
Come and watch the sunset with me from Finistère
A                                                       D
A sentimental moment with me, that we can share
Bm                                   A          E7    D
Forget the faces of forgotten children, Oh, how they cried
Bm                                   A          E7    D
They cannot forgive forgetful Fathers, Oh, how they lied
                            A
And now they try to run away

A                                                       D
You listen to your Walkman, on the back seat of the bus
A                                                       D
You feel yourself evaporate, In un-selfconciousness
Bm                                           A         E7            D
The wounded animal sat by the roadside, Oh, "how" he cried
Bm                                             A          E7    D
Did the peaceful pastures become minefields, Oh, "woe" he cried
                              A
For now he cannot run away

Dm         A7                 C                          Dm
Oh, run away, From the half digested bitterness you feel
Dm         A7                 C                          Dm
Oh, "how can you stay? Says the unexpected innocence you keep
              C                          Dm
And how long does that innocence keep
F                               G
You from drying up, drying out

A                                                                   D
The days when I was bullet proof and nightly full of holes
A                                                       D
Is deep and strong as cellophane in a galaxy of souls
Bm                                      A          E7    D
The father to so many needs a mother, Oh, how she cried
Bm                                      A         E7    D
Does the Father's Mother need a lover, Oh, "yes, please!" she cried
D                        A (E7/D)   A
I know I'll never run away, Finistère
D                   A (E7/D)   A
I can't run no more, Finistère
D                   A
I can’t run no more    (fade..)
