New Amsterdam Youve Got To Hide Your Love Away
Elvis Costello
Edited by Mr. Emotional from Elvis Costello live at Woodstock July 25 1999 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZeV_gbh8pc ---------------------------------------------------------- New Amsterdam/You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away Elvis Costello/Lennon and McCartney [New Amsterdam] You’re sending me tulips mistaken for lilies You give me your lip after punching me silly You turned my head till it rolled down the brain drain If I had any sense now I wouldn’t want it back again. New Amsterdam it’s become much too much Will I have the possession of everything she touches Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches? Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess? Down on the mainspring listen to the tick tock Clock all the faces that move in on your block Twice shy and dog tired because you’ve been bitten Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost written. New Amsterdam it’s become much too much Will I have the possession of everything she touches Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches? Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess? Like in London they’ll take you to heart after a little while Though I look right at home I still feel like an exile. | / | / / | [You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away] Here I stand with head in hand C Fadd9 C Turn my face to the wall If she’s gone I can’t go on Feeling two foot sma - a - all Everywhere peo - ple stare C Fadd9 C Each and every day I can see them laugh at me And I hear them say - ay - ay Hey you’ve got to hide your love away Hey you’ve got to hide your love away How can I e - ven try C Fadd9 C I can never win Hearing them see - ing them In the state I’m i - i in How could she say to me C Fadd9 C "Love will find a way" Gather ’round all you clowns Let me hear you say - ay - ay Hey you’ve got to hide your love away Hey you’ve got to hide your love away [New Amsterdam] Somehow I found myself down at the dockside Thinking about the old days of Liverpool and Rotherhithe Transparent people who live on the other side Living a life that is almost like suicide New Amsterdam it’s become much too much Will I have the possession of everything she touches Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches? Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
