I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
                                               E
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
A
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress

With my father in a casket, I had no plans

CLEOPATRA Ukulele Chords THE LUMINEERS

  VERSION 11  

Intro :
G

Verse 1 :
G
I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
                                               D
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
G
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
                                       D       G
With my father in a casket, I had no plans

Verse 2 :
G                               C                   G
And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
                                                 D
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
G                                  C                G
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
                                                          D
Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around

Chorus :
           B5       G     C      G    C         G           D
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
           B5    G          C   G    C         G          D  
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

Verse 3 :
G                                C                      G
While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
                                               D
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
G                          C               G
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
            C              G                        D
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you

Chorus :
           B5       G     C      G    C         G           D
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
           B5    G          C   G    C         G          D
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

Bridge :
             G                       C        D     G
And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
                                G            C      D        G
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part
