	1994	Bm	A
	On the c	orner of Government and B	ay Avenue

	Bm	A
The old d	oomsday fanatic wore a c	rown of kudzu

	D	A	E	A
S	irens were w	ailing in the G	ulf Coastal h	eat

	G	D	E
And it s	eemed like the w	hole world was i	n forced retreat

Paid no attention, revolved through the door

Past the newspaper racks on the worn marble floor

Near Civil War history my heart skipped a beat

She was standing in fiction stretched high on bare feet

	D	A
L	ove in the l	ibrary

	E	A
Q	uiet and c	ool

	D	A
L	ove in the l	ibrary

	E	A
T	here are no r	ules

	E	A
Surr	ounded by s	tories

	E	A
Surr	eal and subl	ime

	D	A
I fell in l	ove in the l	ibrary

	E	A
O	nce upon a t	ime

I was the pirate, she was the queen

Sir Francis and Elizabeth, the best there's ever been

Then she strolled past my table and stopped at the stairs

Then sent me a smile as she reached for Flaubert

Love in the library

Quiet and cool

Love in the library

There are no rules

Surrounded by stories

Surreal and sublime

I fell in love in the library

Once upon a time

Solo: Bm A Bm A

She gathered her books, walked while she read

Words never spoken, but so much was said

You can read all you want into this rendezvous

But it's safer than most things that lovers can do

Well stories have endings, fantasies fade

And the guard by the door starts drawing the shade

So write your own ending and hope it comes true

For the lovers and strangers on Bay Avenue

Love in the library

Quiet and cool

Love in the library

There are no rules

Surrounded by stories

Surreal and sublime

I fell in love in the library

Once upon a time

Surrounded by stories

Surreal and sublime

I fell in love in the library

Once upon a time
