_ _ _ _ _ [F] All the tables nice [C] and clean, _ [F] _ _
Evelyn's [C] asleep
_ [F] On the graveyard shift [C] again, selling [G] _ _
gasoline
_ _ _ [Fm] And the kids smoking on [C] South First, [F] see high school's just [A] a blur
[G] For [C] her and everything, just found their place [G] it seems
_ _ _ _ [Am] There's an old [F] folk song [C] on the [G] radio, [Am] sounding thin [F] and dark [C] and haunted
[G] _ [Am] There's a bag [F] of weed [C] in the back, beneath the [G] _ books
_ _ _ _ [Am] And she can't [F] stand the sight [C] of this cul-de [G]-sac, [Am] like an old [F] crawl king [C] on a [G] lamppost
[Am] And this window [F] _
[C] hasn't been nice and clean [G] since it last rained
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ And [F] she picks up a different [C] date, _ [F] driving west to East [C] LA
_ _ [F] And there ain't no sign [C] of a down-but-day, _ [G] anyone can dream
_ Anyone _ can _ dream
[C] And all the couch [F] girls coming with [Am] the bars let out, [G] have been hungry
_ _ [C] Making such [F] a mess, [Am] Evelyn just toss trash, [G] she's sweeping _ up _
There's [Am] a thin [F] dark cloud in [C] the evening [G] air, [Am] after every [F] sunny [C] day
[G]
There's [Am] a bum who [F] lives in [C] the parking lot, [G] watching windows just to see
Just to _ see
You play [C] with me
