Esus4 E Esus4 E
Writing a song about Lake Memphramagog
Esus4 E D A
And tonight I don't believe
Esus4 E Esus4 E
There are words to spare and be a tip and a nod
Esus4 E D
Admitting it's half the defeat

Esus4 E Esus4 E
Tonight, the non-essential worker
Esus4 E D A
Is hunting the problem bears
Esus4 E
One sounds cornered
Esus4 E
And one can go no further
Esus4 E D
It all sounds like it's happening upstairs

D E
Do you hear that?
A
Like dry leaves a-stragglin'
D A E
Or a guard dog's claws on cement
E A D
Or an idea that's getting more determined
D E A
To get where it's get-ting


This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah
This could be simpler than keeping it real

Shakespeare, you're a drunken savage
You're a sobering green-eyed Voltaire
It almost sounds funny
Like two tough-talking bullies
Really going at it upstairs

This might be harder than keeping it simple, yeah
This could be simpler than keeping it real

Tonight, the non-essential worker
Takes on the green-eyed Voltaire
It won't go further than sounding just like murder
Then everything is quiet upstairs

Now do you hear that?
The song of Memphramagog
The shh's of this gentle lament
It's maybe a song that can't quite be determined
Till it gets where it's getting
