[B] [A] [D]
[A]
I thought I saw you in the [D] battleship, but it was only a lookalike.
[A] She was nothing but a vision [D] trick.
[Bm] Under the warning light, [F#m] she was close.
[A] Close enough to be [F#m] your ghost.
[A] But my chances turned to [D] toast when I asked her if [Bm] I could call her [F#m] your name.
[A] [F#m]
[A] I thought I saw you in the rusty [D] hook, huddled up in a [Bm] whippet chair.
[A] I wandered over for a closer [D] look and kissed whoever [Bm] was sitting [E] there.
[F#m] She was close, and [A] she held me very
[F#m] tightly.
Till I [A] asked awfully [D] politely, please, [Bm] can I call [A] you her name?
[F#m]
[A] [F#m] [C#m]
[D] And I elongated my lift [Bm] home.
[F#m]
Yeah, I let him go the long way [D] round.
I [Bm] snatched his scent on the seatbelt [E] and kept my short goods to [A] myself.
[D] I [E]
[A] thought I saw you in the parrot's beak, [D] messing with the smoke [A] alarm.
It was too loud for me to hear her speak.
[D] And she had a broken [F#m] arm, it was close.
[A] So close that the walls [F#m] were wet, [A] and she wrote it out in [D] lettracets.
No, you can't call me [C#m] her name.
[A] Tell me, where's [C#m] your hiding place?
[A] I'm worried [C#m] I'll forget your face.
[F#m] And I've asked everyone.
[Bm] I'm beginning to think I [E] imagined you all along.
[D] I elongated my [Bm] lift home.
[F#m]
Yeah, I let him go the long way [D] round.
[Bm] I snatched your scent on the seatbelt [Dm] and kept my short goods to myself.
[A]
[D] [Bm]
[A]
[D] [Bm]
[F#m]
[Bm]
[D] I
[E]
[A] saw your sister in the cornerstone, [D] on the phone [Bm] to the middleman.
[A] When I saw that she was on her [D] own, I thought she [Bm] might understand.
And [F#m] she was close, but you couldn't get much closer.
She said, [A] I'm really not [D] supposed to, but yes, you can call me [Bm]
anything [A] you want.
