Graham Parker - Just Like Hermann Hesse Lyrics

pre>two keys in this song, very tricky

Intro: a d a e a d e a

F c g c f c g
I took off my mask that night and bared my teeth in your face
F c g c f c g
You saw something else living under my skin the wolf with no thought of disgrace

A e a a e
I know i know some things you must never confess
A e d
I drop to the ground like a bird hit by gunshot
E e a
Just like hermann hesse

I stood by the theatre door knowing it had to begin



I was shaking down to my core knowing i had to go in
I know i know some things i cry as the angels confess
I left my identity back in the theatre
Just like hermann hesse

You saw my precious mask falling from my face
I stood naked in front of you the wolf with no thought of disgrace
I know i know some things you must never confess

You chose the spirit i chose the flesh
Just like hermann hesse
Just like hermann hesse pre>
