ist: The Decemberists # Album: Castaways and Cutouts # Song: The Legionnaire's Lament # #(http://www.indieguitartabs.com/bands/decemberists/08_lament.html) # I'm a [Dm]legionnaire, camel in [F]disrepair Hoping for a [G]frigidaire to come [Gm]passing [A]by I am on reprieve, lacking my joie de vive Missing my gay Paris, in this desert dry And I wrote my girl, told her I would not return Terribly taken a turn, for the worse now I fear ItÂ’s been a year or more since they shipped me to this foreign shore Fighting in a foreign war so far away from my home If only summer [F]rain would fall on the [C]houses and the boulevards And the [Gm]sidewalk bagatelles it's like a [Bb]dream With the [F]roar of cars and the [C]lulling of the cafe bars, The [Gm]sweetly sleeping sweeping of the [Bb]Seine Lord I [Bbm]don't know if I'll ever be back again La la la la dum La la la la Medicating in the sun, pinched doses of laudanum Longing for the old fecundity of my homeland Curses to this mirage, a bottle of ancient Shiraz A smattering of distant applause is ringing in my poor ears On the old left bank, my baby in a charabanc Riding up the width and length of the Champs Elysees If only summer rain would fall on the houses and the boulevard And the sidewalk bagatelles it's like a dream With the roar of cars and the lulling of the cafe bars The sweetly sleeping sweeping of the Seine Lord I don't know if I'll ever be back again If only summer rain would fall on the houses and the boulevard And the sidewalk bagatelles itÂ’s like a dream With the roar of cars and the lulling of the cafe bars The sweetly sleeping sweeping of the Seine Lord I don't know if I'll ever be back again... [F] Be back a[C]gain, be back a[Gm]gain, I'll be back a[Bb]gain La la la [F]la...[C][Gm][Bb] [F] [C] [Gm] [B
