[Verse 1]
D# Fm
The man was trying to talk to me
Gm Fm
about scenes I did not know.
D# Fm
He asked me to spend the night with him,
Gm A#
so I said that I'd have to go.
D#
For the words spilled out
Gm
from the edge of his lips
G# D#
and fell down the side of his chin
D# Fm
as my mind moved away for a short holiday
G# D#
with a girl I had seen coming in
[Verse 2]
D# Fm
In her hair, you could smell the diesel fumes
Gm Fm
of a midnight motorway.
D# Fm
In her eyes, she keeps the summer times
Gm A#
where happier memories play.
D#
Yes, you know how sometimes,
Gm
when you're making up rhymes
G# D#
and you can't find a word that will fit?
D# Fm
Well, she was the one who got stuck on your tongue
G# D#
and gave you the option to quit.
[Interlude]
D# Fm Gm Fm D#
[Verse 3]
D# Fm
She split the night time with her smile
Gm Fm
and broke up the sky with her dreams
D# Fm
and she doesn't believe all the men she has known
Gm A#
were all real, for that's how it seems.
D# Gm
In her leather shines the darkness
G# D#
of the mentrrrrll??? parlour??? tonight,
D#
and she'll cut out your tongue
Fm
with each blade that she pulls
G# D#
though your conscience may put up a fight.
[Verse 4]
D# Fm
So, I watched her fumble with cigarettes
Gm Fm
and a trembling coffee cup.
D# Fm
Yet, I'd be there myself if I knew where she was,
Gm A#
but she sighed and her mind drifted off
D#
Yes, you know sometimes
Gm
when you're watching for signs
G# D#
and you can't find a look that will fit?
D# Fm
Well, she was the one who put out the sun
G# D#
and gave me a reason to quit.
[Interlude]
D# Fm Gm Fm D#
[Verse 5]
D# Fm
Panes of glass have shattered now
Gm Fm
and the wind comes racing in
D# Fm
to disconnect the spiders' webs
Gm A#
the spread their wings round the brim
D#
of the pots and the bottles
Gm
that soak in the dust
G# D#
with jungle of clothes that she keeps
D#
incase, maybe some day
Fm
she feels that she may
G# D#
become queen of the night as she sleeps.
[Verse 6]
D# Fm
A# trail of broken effigies
Gm Fm
lay scattered 'round her bed
D# Fm
the apples, the records, the cigarette ash
Gm A#
have melted into her head
D# Gm
and she takes off her clothes to a Portuguese hymn
G# D#
that she found in a jar on the beach
D# Fm
she has woven it seems a basket of dreams
G# D#
for the fruit that just out of reach.
[Interlude]
D# Fm Gm Fm D#
[Verse 7]
D# Fm
At last, she has tasted the opium sleep
Gm Fm
and wonders just how it will feel
D# Fm
when the fingers of fear touch her innermost soul
Gm A#
and the breath of life becomes real
D#
Well, you know how sometimes
Gm
you're alone in your mind
G# D#
and you've just found a piece that will fit?
D#
Well, she was the one
Fm
when all's said and done.
G# D#
who gave me the freedom to quit
[Verse 8]
D# Fm
The man was still trying to talk to me
Gm Fm
about scenes I did not know.
D# Fm
He asked me to enter a contract with him
Gm A#
so I said that I'd have to go.
D#
For the words spilled out
Gm
from the edge of his mouth
G# D#
and fell down the side of his face
D#
but my mind was away
Fm
on a short holiday
G# D#
with a girl I'd seen leaving the place.
