[Bm] [D] [A]
[Bm] I was [E] looking for a rhyme [Bm] for the New York Times [F#m] When I sensed I was not [A] alone
She [E] said she knew how to spell [Bm] audaciously [F#m] I could tell I wasn't [A] alone
And [E] so I forced a smile, [Bm] contrary to my style [F#m] And she looked into my [A] eyes
She [E] said she wanted to go to [Bm] heaven Or [F#m] would you rather not be [A] saved?
Here [Bm] comes my train,
[G]
I'm on [D] my way Oh, will you not [F#m] see?
I [G] don't need your sympathy [F#m]
I [G] won't read your [A] poetry, oh sweet [E] Nathalie
[Bm] [D]

[E] [Bm]
[D] [A]
[D] So [E] she took me back [Bm] to a basement flat [F#m] Which was down off Charlotte [A] Street
Though [E] it was never my [Bm] intention Though we [F#] were not intense, not [A] least
Because, well, [E] if you must just take Then [Bm] I'm a piece of cake
[F#m] That is what she said to [A] me
So [E] I gave myself to [Bm] her charity Well, [F#m] at least that's how [A] it seemed
Here comes [Bm] my train,
[G] I'm on [D] my way What [Bm] got into [F#m] me?
I [G] don't need your [F#m] sympathy I [G] won't read your [A] poetry, oh [E] bittersweet

[A] [D] [E] I was looking for a rise [Bm] before the New York Times When I [F#m] was distracted
[A] Yes, [E] those were precious times [Bm] together That [F#m] we wasted
[A] [E] Now I'm working hard [Bm] for my union card I [F#m] must be leaving Charlotte [A] Street
Though [E] it was never my [Bm] intention To stay [F#m] so long, [A] [Dm] so [E] long
