Am Em Dm(or Dsus2) C

A picture of Amsterdam,

She's a carnival diver,

Tongue in the sky,
Am Em
Cutting through time like a memory,
Dm C G
Strung on a wire,

The colour of anything,
Dm C G
Fades in the air,

She is the film of the book,

Of the story of the smell of her hair

A girl on a wire,

Above Stephenson's green,

like a kite on the air,
