[Vers 1]
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
You were a phonograph, I was a kid
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
I sat with an ear close, just listening
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
I was there when the rain tapped her way down you face
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
You were a miracle... I was just holdin' your space
Am Am(without d2, hammer on d2) Am/C Am
[Vers 2]
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Well time has a way of throwing it all in your face
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
The past, she is haunted, the future is laced
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Heartbreak, ya know, drives a big black car
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Swear I was in the back seat, just minding my own
G7 C
And through the glass, the corn crows come like rain
G7 Am
They won't stay, they won't stay
Am Em C/G
For too long now
G7 Am
This could be all that we know...
D7
Of love and all.
[Vers 3]
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Well you were a dancer, I was a rag
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
The song in my head, well was all that I had
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Hope was a letter I never could send
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Love was a country we couldn't defend.
G7 F C/G G7 G7 C G7
And through the carnival we watch them go round and round
G7 F C/G G7 G7 G7
All we knew of home was just a sunset and some clowns
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
[Vers 4]
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Well you were a magazine, I was a plane jane
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Just walking the sidewalks all covered in rain
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Love to just get into one of your stories
Am G7 Fmaj7 C G7
Just me and all of my plane jane glory
