Teachers Cifras

[Intro]
 
Bm
 
[Verse 1]
 
  Bm           G
I met a woman long ago
     Bm                  G
Her hair the black that black can go
     Bm                   G
Are you a teacher of the heart?
 Bm
Soft she answered no
 
Bm
 
[Verse 2]
 
  Bm            G
I met a girl across the sea
     Bm                 G
Her hair the gold that gold can be
    Bm            G
Are you a teacher of the heart?
  Bm
Yes, but not for thee
 
Bm
 
[Verse 3]
 
  Bm             G
I met a man who lost his mind
   Bm                 G
In some lost place I had to find
Bm             G        Bm
Follow me the wise man said
 
But he walked behind
 
Bm
 
[Verse 4]
 
   Bm            G
I walked into a hospital
       Bm                G
Where none was sick and none was well
Bm                 G
When at night the nurses left
   Bm
I could not walk at all
 
Bm
 
[Verse 5]
 
Bm                G
Morning came and then came noon
Bm              G
Dinner time a scalpel blade
Bm             G      Bm
Lay beside my silver spoon
 
Bm
 
[Verse 6]
 
Bm                 G
Some girls wander by mistake
  Bm                 G
Into the mess that scalpels make
    Bm               G
Are you the teachers of my heart?
    Bm
We teach old hearts to break
 
Bm
 
[Verse 7]
 
    Bm             G
One morning I woke up alone
     Bm               G
The hospital and the nurses gone
 Bm              G
Have I carved enough my Lord?
  Bm
Child, you are a bone
 
Bm
 
[Verse 8]
 
  Bm               G
I ate and ate and ate
     Bm              G
No I did not miss a plate, well
 Bm                G
How much do these suppers cost?
      Bm
We'll take it out in hate
 
Bm
 
[Verse 9]
 
   Bm             G
I spent my hatred everyplace
   Bm            G
On every work on every face
Bm               G
Someone gave me wishes
      Bm
And I wished for an embrace
 
Bm
 
[Verse 10]
 
Bm               G              Bm
Several girls embraced me, then
         G
I was embraced by men
Bm             G
Is my passion perfect?
    Bm
No, do it once again
 
Bm
 
[Verse 11]
 
Bm             G
I was handsome I was strong
   Bm                G
I knew the words of every song
Bm              G
Did my singing please you?
         Bm
No, the words you sang were wrong
 
Bm
 
[Verse 12]
 
Bm             G
Who is it whom I address
Bm                  G
Who takes down what I confess?
    Bm               G
Are you the teachers of my heart?
    Bm
We teach old hearts to rest
 
Bm
 
[Verse 13]
 
    Bm              G
Oh teachers are my lessons done?
  Bm          G
I cannot do another one
     Bm                       G
They laughed and laughed and said, Well child
Bm
Are your lessons done?
Bm
Are your lessons done?
Bm
Are your lessons done?
