verse 1
D C Em D
A truck flashes at me alone One eye and still
D C Em D
I've mountains of pain to bear Up upon that hill,
Em D
So, I put them down
Em D
In the shadows of the leaves,
Chorus :
I hear your heart singing
I hear your heart sing
D C Em D
The streets I prowl So secretly I see
D C Em D
Sirens and trains at night They don't frighten me,
Em D
So I dismiss the sound
Em D
To the end of the night,
Chorus :
I hear your heart singing
I hear your heart sing
Bm (799777) A (577655)
The note you found, that you blew across town
Bm A
Over my face and into this place

Oh, soul of so and so, come and go with me
D C Em D
I'll take you in the waterpools I'll take you through the reeds
Em D
Beyond the shore

With an ear to the stream,
Chorus :
I hear your heart singing
I hear your heart sing

Taboos you choose, they leave me amused
Bm A
Leaves not a trace of your burning face

Source : the intro riff was transcribed in French magazine „Guitare & Clavier"-
Hors-série : Les Plus Grands Plans du Rock V
The annotation is the following (translated) :
"JLP is of one of the best songwriter of his generation. He has many fans
from Nick Cave to Henry Rollins via Noir Désir (great French band!)"
about the song : "the rhythmic of this song sounds like Robert Smith
(sic) ; the solo is absolutely great and shows influence from Coltrane."

your dexadrine and pearls
so I slipped some love dust

Oh my, you're mine,
I'm King St. John Divine
unhealthy queen
and king of town

Brother's in the hallway
Oh, insults that he hurls
I'm standing candles
trying to visualize you girl,
Oh my, you're mine,
I'm King St. John Divine
unhealthy queen
who's the king of town?
Rain Rain
streets and towns
bands are playin'
oh, Sir Douglas rain,
I'm setting up an alter [sic]
and yes, I snipped your curls
I'm practicing voodoo
in the bedroom on you girl,
Oh my, you're mine,
I'm King St. John Divine
unhealthy queen
and king of town
