C
I caught the bus in Chinatown
Em F
And slept the whole way up I-95
Am D
The driver, cut and weaved so crazy, just his luck kept him alive and I
G C
guess I believe his rhythm on that morning after New Year's Eve
C
And I remember Shanghai
Em F
How I wasn't sure just what was safe to eat
Am D
The chickens pecked and wandered at the barefeet of the children hawking
G
figurines of workers smiling
C
What's the Chinese word for cheese?
C
Watched a sidewalk butcher
Em F Am
His instinctive understanding made the carcass snap and clarify beneath his
D G
nimble hand that held the knife so long, so many times, the handles' changed
C
to shapes just like his fingers and his palms
C Em
And I, I am a broken glass
F
Shards upon the floor
Am
Won't hold nothing anymore
C Em
And I, I am a broken glass
F
Shards upon the floor
Am
Won't hold nothing anymore
C
Anymore
C
It's 2AM in Tokyo
Em F Am
And still too soon to call back to the people who will soon begin the day I
D G
polished off and I will walk a mile amidst the neon lights that advertise
C
but I don't know just what they sell
C
I tell the taxi driver
Em
To the park, a higher tone
F Am
And his gloves his pristine white just like the girls I used to know would
D
wear to dance their first cotillion
G C
Every single one of them named Jennifer
C
I clutched at the Saint Christopher
Em F Am
I picked up at some country abbey long ago when I believed he'd keep me safe
D G
and make me happy but it seems the luck he brings is not the common currency
C
a penny in Japan
C Em
And I, I am a broken glass
F
Shards upon the floor
Am
Won't hold nothing anymore
C Em
And I, I am a broken glass
F
Shards upon the floor
Am
Won't hold nothing anymore
C Em
And I, I am a broken glass
F
Shards upon the floor
Am
Won't hold nothing anymore
