Em D C
You got the lights on in the afternoon
B Em
And the nights are drawn out long
D C
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom
B Em
With a cough drop coloured tongue
D C
And you were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
B Em
And I thought you might be mine
D C
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy tuesday night
B
In the right place and time
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty-four hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
Em D C
Well, you cured my January blues,
B Em
yeah, you made it all alright
D C
I got a feeling I might've lit the very fuse
B Em
that you were trying not to light
D C
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
B Em
Cause I had nothing to lose
D C
When the Winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true
B
Ain't it funny what you'll do?
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty-four hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
C
In late afternoon
D
The ghost in your room
Em
That you always thought didn't approve
Em
Of you knocking boots
C B
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
Em
Knee socks
Em
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginning of mean streets
You could be my baby
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty-four hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
