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