[N] [E]
[F]
The morning sun touched lightly on [Bb] the eyes of Lucy [F] Jordan
In a white suburban bedroom, in a white [C] suburban town
As she lay [F] there beneath the covers, dreaming [Bb] of a thousand [F] lovers
Till the [C] world turned to arrow and the room went [F] spinning round
At [Bb] the age of thirty-seven, she [F] realized she'd never drive through Paris
In a sports car with the warm wind in her hair, [C]
so [F] she let the phone ring
And she [Bb] sat there, [F] softly singing little [C] notes around
She'd memorized the [Bb] daddy's name from [F] chats
Her husband, he's off to work, and the [Bb] kids were off to [F]
school
And there were oh so many words for her [C] to spend the day
[F] She'd clean the house an hour, [Bb] or rearrange a [F] flower
[C] Or make the shady street, screaming all the [F] way
[Bb] At the age of thirty-seven, [F] she realized she'd never drive through Paris
In a sports car with the warm wind in her hair, [C] so [F] she let the phone ring
And she [Bb] sat there, softly [F]
singing little [C] notes around
She'd memorized the [Bb]
daddy's name from [F] chats
Evening sun touched gently on [Bb] the eyes of Lucy [F] Jordan
On the rooftop where she climbed when all the laughter grew [C] too loud
And [F] she bowed and cursed to the man who [Bb] reached and often [F] hurt his head
And he [C] led the duck to the long white car that waited [F] past the cross
At the [Bb] age of thirty-seven, she knew she'd found what happened
As she rode along through Paris with the warm wind in her hair
