[Em] [G]
[Am] [F]
[Am]
[G]
[Am]
She
[A] dreamed China white [A] behind her [D] eyes of China blue
Her future [E] wrapped in velvet and her [C] memories wrapped in warm cotton wool
[D]
And [Am] her coffee clumps are buried in the hours that she killed [Em] in another murder of a day
[A] Her patience starts [D] to crumble like [E] a rock that turns [A] to sand
And [E] time breaks down to [G] seconds when [A] you're waiting with no man
[Bb]
[A] [C]
[Gm]
[C] [G]
[Bb]
[A] She's checking out the way while [G]
she's checking out the guy
[E] Whose strong imagination [B] is [C] climbing up the ladder of [D] her silk clad thigh
And [Am] the cigarettes are burning at the hours that she killed [Em] in another murder of a day
[A] Her patience starts to [D] crumble like [E] a rock that turns [A] to sand
And [E]
time breaks [G] down to seconds when [A] you're waiting with no man
It [Am] seems
[C] [Gm]
[C]
[A] [Bbm]
[Bb] [Gbm]
so long since [G] yesterday, [A] the time goes by so slow
[Bm] When [Bb] you're waiting on a, [Cm]
[Gm] waiting on [G] a to show
She [A]
[Am]
[A] [Am]
[G] [A]
[Am] [C]
[G] [Em] [Am]
[A]
[Am] shivers in a cold sweat, and she's trying to ignore
As she wraps her shaking fingers round the loose chains by the phone
She [G]
needs it [F] more than she [A] let miss, [Am] and more than others need [A] to know
She holds the knots that [G] tie her [F] stomach down with her thighs
The [G]
[Gbm] time goes by [D] so slow
When [Eb] you're waiting on a, [Cm]
[Gm] waiting on a man [G] to show
[Am] She plays the ball and pays attention as she punches out the call
As she fumbles with the number that the panic [A] still doesn't show
She [A] [Em]
prays the lights stay [G] green all night
She [Am] prays the traffic doesn't [G] slow
[F] And the knots that tie [G] her stomach are [A] only butterflies
[G] Only butterflies [A] fly by every [G] day
While [Bb] you're waiting on [Cm] a man,
[D] waiting on a man to show
[Eb]
There [D]
[Gm]
he [D] stands behind the door
[C] She reaches for her coat to go and [Bb] she wanders [Bb] away in a [Gm] dream
[Bb] She wanders away to [F] a dream
[D] [Gbm]
[Bm]
[C] [D] [Gbm]
[Bm]
[D] She's left [Gbm] home [Am] through the neon wash alleyways
[D] She flirts [Gbm] with the shadows [Am] and skirts round the victims [Dm] of the night
That sleep through [Eb] the day
That [Bb] casts out its refugees [Eb] and throws out its debris
She [G] turns the key in [Bm] her lock to [C] a fairy tale world that [Am] she guards
With her ghosts [D] of faithful familiars who [G] attend to [Bm] her shun
In the patchwork cathedral [Am] observing the ritual [D] with silent compassion [Em] and prayers
On [E]
[D] [Gbm]
[Am]
[D] [Gbm]
[Am]
[Dm]
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Ab]
[G] the [Bm] candlelit edges of [Em] a tightening circle
She [Am] arranges the photographs [D] faded and yellowing
[G] The memories [Bm]
left of her friends and her family [Am] respectfully turn to the [Bm] wall
She [G] turns up [Bm] a sound on [Em] her second hand radio
[Am] And drowns out the noise of the [D] world that she lives in
[G] Her conscience, [Bm] her witness, [C] her life is her cajole
And [Am] the man she left waiting is [D] waiting to murder [Em] again
