New Amsterdam
Elvis Costello
C Am F C
You're sending me tulips, mistaken for lilies,
C Am A# G
You give me your lip after punching me silly,
C Am F C
You turned my head till it rolled down the brain drain,
C Am A# G
If I had any sense now, I wouldn't want it back again.
C Eb Dm C
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
C Eb Dm C
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
C Eb Dm C
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
C Eb Dm C
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
C Am F C
Down on the mainspring, listen to the tick tock,
C Am A# G
Clock all the faces that move in on your block,
C Am F C
Twice shy and dog tired because you've been bitten,
C Am A# G
Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost written.
C Eb Dm C
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
C Eb Dm C
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
C Eb Dm C
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
C Eb Dm C
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
A A D A
Like, in London, they'll take you to heart after a little while,
A A F G F C G
Though I look right at home, I still feel like an exile.
C Am F C
Somehow I found myself down at the dockside,
C Am A# G
Thinking about the old days of Liverpool and Rotherhithe,
C Am F C
Transparent people who live on the other side,
C Am A# G
Living a life that is almost like suicide,
C Eb Dm C
New Amsterdam, it's become much too much,
C Eb Dm C
Will I have the possession of everything she touches,
C Eb Dm C
Till I step on the brake to get out of her clutches?
C Eb Dm C
Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
