[C#] I'm so proud of you.
Such a discovery for my dirty crown.
I've been a-walkin' on the [A#m] moon for [C#] a long time.
Baby child, upon your mama's knee,
Thirty-five angels been lookin' down on me.
They been a [G#]-warnin' [C#]
[A#m] [G#] you, [F#] but [C#] I am so wild.
[A#m] [F#] See ya, see ya, [D#m] see ya go, you [C#] know.
Baby, the messiah [F#] came a [C#]-walkin'.
[F#m] Walkin' translation [D#m] down to the street of [C#] lies.
Singin' in the scrapyard by the fire.
[A#m] [G#] [C#]
[A#] [C#]
[A#] [C#] I'm a-pickin' my time for her riches.
I'm waitin' for the diamonds.
[A#m] Wrappin' the [C#] digits of love around here.
[A#] [C#] Lockin' my hands in a veil.
[A#] [B] [C#] Like a natural curl in [A#] my [C#] cabby's hair.
Say it for me, gal.
You could [A#m] really [C#] understand all that it takes to say you're gone.
[A#] [B] [C#] On your own.
[F#] In the rusty hood, I see the [D#m] scars [C#] fall down.
Screamin' in the steel frame, I'm a-find out.
Walkin' [F#] translation [D#m] down to the street of [C#] lies.
Scrap [C] girl.

[B] [C#] Lost now, baby, [Fm] dreamin' sweet [B] [C#] things.
I'm a-callin' a brand new girl.
Hand-built on the wings, she will let it go.
[A#]
[C#] You won't even know.
On new rugs and dust, do you shine?
Broken, cut, and golden.
[G#] It's [C#] very on time, you can assure.
[A#]
[C#] You won't even know what for.
[A#] [G#]
[F#] Down in a junk, [D#m] darkest [C#] days.
Stabbed to the prize, yes, [G#] others have thrown away.
[F#] Walkin' translation [D#] down to the street of [C#] lies.
Scrap [A#m] girl.
I [F#] wake up runnin' on the [D#m] TV [C#] now.
Thirty-five angels lead her around.
[F#] She's in a walkin' [D#] translation line.
Street [C#] of lies.
She's in a walkin' translation line.

[F#] [C#] By and by we won't need no forgiveness, no.

She's layin' back there, thinkin' well.
I'm havin' a good start [C#] to the whole year.
