 E                   E    
 Peter and Lou would skate
 E                  Ebm Ab7 
 On winter's frozen lake
 A                         Abm    
 Circling around all their friends
 A                      F#m7 B 
 Laughing wherever they went.
 
         E                    E    
 They're catching the mornin' plane
     E                   Ebm    Ab7 
 And sendin' the rest by train, 
 A                           Abm 
 Hangin' their skates on the wall
 A                            Abm 
 Takin' their turn and that's all
      F#m       Am6      E       F#           A            B7         
 With brushes & canvas & macrome handcrafts & Bessie Smith singin' the
 E7      
 blues...
 A                    Abm 
 A chorus for Peter & Lou.

     E                E  
 Now loneliness has a way
    E                  Ebm Ab7 
 Of hangin' around all day
     A                     Abm 
 I'm standing alone on the ice
     A            C#m   F#m7          B   
 I'm wonderin' if maybe they've been right
 
 E                         E    
 So I'll catch the mornin' plane
 E                    Ebm  Ab7 
 Send all the rest by train
 C#m         A            Abm 
 Leavin' the ice there to thaw
     A                         Abm 
 I'm takin' my turn and that's all.
      F#m         Am6       E              F#        A           
 And if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith
 B7          E7   
 singin' the blues
 A                      Abm 
 In a chorus for Peter & Lou
 
      F#m         Am6       E              F#        A           
 Oh, if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith
 B7          E7   
 singin' the blues
 A                      Abm 
 In a chorus for Peter & Lou
