Dm7
I’ll stay here lying on your bed,
E
even for the rest of my days.
Bbmaj7
With its side empty spaced,
Am7
where you once used to stay.
Bbmaj7 Am7
Have you ever noticed the glimpses upstairs?
F E G
These rooms are all that matter.
Verse 2:
Dm7
And on the walls there’s pictures screaming
E
and ask me what I’ve done to seem
Bbmaj7 Am7
so amused by the way of having done nothing today.
Bbmaj7 Am7
They all have their eyes covered up with paint.
F E G
Their room is all that matters.
Chorus:
Gm7
I can walk up the walls,
Dm7 Gm7 Dm7
but can’t make water out of wine.
Gm7 Dm7
So I’m desperate for some cold rain
Am7 Bbmaj7
to wash those hands of mine.
Verse 3:
Dm7
I’ll stay here listening to the crowds
E
and hear the footsteps and the shouts.
Bbmaj7
But it’s all passing me by,
Am7
tangled up in my own lie.
Bbmaj7 Am7
Have I missed the clue of your brave escape?
F E G
For this is what – you said – matters.
Outro:
Gm7
Some other town,
Dm7 Gm7 Dm7
some other day,
Gm7 Dm7
some other clown,
Am7 Bbmaj7
coming up her way.
