Start Jamming...
Time is written on your [A] face
Oh, the cold white arms of memory [E] embrace you
Love is all we laid to [A] waste
[B] Now it's only lips of [F#] loneliness that [B] taste you
Oh God, what you were given for
Oh [A] God, you were given for Oh [B] God!
[B] My cell [F#] is like [A] a box [E] full [C#m] of broken [B] cards
[E] I never left [A] the room
The light bulb that shone down on me [E] was gloomy
I could read you by [A] the moon
[B] The way you looked at [F#] me, I thought you [B] knew me
[D#] [G#m]
Oh God, you were given for
Oh [A] God, you were given for
Oh [B] God!
My cell [F#] is like [A] a box [E] full of [B] broken cards
My cell [F#] is like a box [E] full of broken [B] cards
[A] [E] Special delivery for [B] my cell
What?
What could anybody [A] say?
Except in hindsight, this was bound [E] to happen
When two souls collide [A] this way
[B] There's no compartment [F#] they can find a map in
[A] I've got to know what [E] you're hiding
I'm sleeping with [D] your eyes locked in [A] your heart
[B] Oh God, you were given for
[A] Oh God, you were given for
[B] Oh God!
My cell [F#] is like [A] a box [E] full [G#] of broken [B] cards
My cell [F#] is like [A] a box [E] full of broken [B] cards
My cell is [F#] like [A] a box [E] full of broken [B] cards
