Intro: C
C
Well I used to know someone fair
C
She had orange ribbons in her hair
F
She was such a trip
She was hardly there
C
But I loved her
Just the same.
C
There was rain in our window,
C
The FM set was ragged
F
But she could talk, yeah,
We learned to speak
C
And one year has gone by
C
Such a long long road to seek it
C
All we did was break and freak it
F
We had all that lovers ever had
C
We just blew it and I'm not sad
C
Well I'm mad and I'm bad
C
And two years have gone by
C
Now her world was bright orange
C
And the fire glowed
F
And her friend had a baby
C
And she lived with us
C
Yeah, we broke through the window
C
Yeah, we knocked on the door
F
Her phone would not answer,
C
Yeah, but she's still home
C
Now her father has passed over
C
and her sister is a star
F
and her mother smokes diamonds
C
and she sleeps out in the car
C
Yeah, but she remembers Chicago
C
The musicians & guitars
F
and grass by the lake
C
and people who laugh'd
C
and made her poor heart ache
C
Now we live down in the valley
C
We work out on the farm
F
We climb up to the mountains
C
and everything's fine
C
and I'm still here
C
and you're still there
C
and we're still around
