Letra

[Intro]
| Em G/D | G - | Em G/D |

[Verse 1]
G    Em      G/D        G
 The war was over I was living with my folks
  Em
I yelled upstairs,
G         C#                   D
 "hey mom I'm off to grab some smokes
       G      B
and my father called,
     Em                   A7
"why you need to smoke so late?
    C
i'd lied, I had a date

[Pre-Chorus]
G
free from my folks' enslavement
B
skippin' along the pavement
   G               Em/G    A7
to see a brunnette,    who i'd never met
        D
but i'd never would forget,
                       G
how she looked in that dress
                          B
how she stuck out her hand and said
                   Em   D                   A7
"My name is Cecily Smith and I hope you like  music,
cause i've got
G               B
two tickets for La Traviata"
Em                A7
thats when I said "I hate opera."

[Chorus]
    C                       G
she laughed and said, "Well lucky for you,
   C
if you're with Cecily
      G    C                  G
Smith, who cares what you are listening to,
     C                          G
it's who you're listening with."

[Interlude]
            Em | G/D G | - Em |
| G/D

[Verse 2]
G      Em
 so we take our seats,
G/D              G
   her hands are folded in her lap
   Em
If not a kiss,
G       C#                  D
 then i at least will get a nap
     G        B       Em              A7
so I close my eyes as the orchestra begins,
     C
then I hear violins

[Pre Chorus]
    G
and thehair on my neck was rising,
B
a feeling new and surprising
    G
but it wasn't the sound,
Em/G     A7
    that made my heart pound
      D                                    G
no it was because I found her hand is in mine
                             B
and that's where it will stay until they play the final
Em
chord
D                   A7
 she says, "Were you  bored?
and I say,
G                  B               Em               A7
"I guess it wasn't quite so bad it was the best time  that
I ever had"

[Chorus]
    C                       G
she laughed and said, "Well lucky for you,
  C                        G
I got seats to Beethoven's fifth
    C                  G                 C
who cares what you are listening to it's who you're
listening with."

[Solo]
Em C Em C  Em          C
         a perfect wife

[Bridge]
  Em          C
a perfect life

[Verse 3]
D    Em     G/D           G
 the time exploded like a bullet from a gun
  Em           G         C#
a week, a year, and then a marriage,
      D
and a son
      G      B       Em
and a rental where I still can hear her laugh,
A7           C
  when I play the phonograph

[Pre-Chorus]
   G
so I let the music guide me
B
Cecily sits beside me
  G
a girl of nineteen,
Em/G     A7
    with a nervous marine
         D
feel her head begin to lean
                G
as the melody soars
                      B                              Em
and though it was real it doesn't feel like it could be
D                   A7
 that night when you  said to me
               G               B
that "I've got two tickets for La Traviata.
 Em A7
"

[Chorus]
G     C                 G
 it's sad but true, how much I miss you,
  C
I miss you Cecily Smith
G C               G
  Life is not the things that we do
     C                        G
It's who we're doing them with
