[Bb] Thank [Ab] you very much.
I woke up in mid [Db]-afternoon,
cause that's when [Eb] it all hurts [Ab] the most.
I dream I'll never know anyone at the [Db] party,
[Eb] and I'm always [Ab] the host.
[Cm] If dreams are like movies,
then [Db] memories are films about [Ab] ghosts.
You [Eb] can never escape,
you [Db] can only lose yourself down [Ab] coast.
Well I am an idiot,
walking a [Db] tightrope of [Eb] fortune and [Ab] fame.
Swinging [Db] trapezes through [Eb] circles of [Ab] flame.
If [Cm] you've never stared off into [Db] the distance,
then your life is [Ab] a shame.
And though [Eb] I'll never forget your face,
[Db] sometimes I can't remember [Ab] my name.
[Cm] Hey [Db] Mrs.
[Ab] Water, don't [Eb] cry.
[Cm] Hey [Ab] Mrs.
Water, [Eb] I know [Cm] I'm.
Hey [Ab] Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't you talk to [Ab] me.
There's a piece of Maria,
[Db] in every [Eb] song that I [Ab] sing.
The price of a memory,
is the [Db] memory of [Eb] the sorrow it [Ab] brings.
There [Cm] is always one last light [Db] to turn out,
and one last [Ab] bell to ring.
And the [Eb] last one out of [Db] the circus,
has to lock up [Ab] everything.
Or the elephants will get out,
and [Db] forget to [Eb] remember what you [Ab] said.
Or the ghosts of the Chilter world,
[Db] will linger [Eb] inside of your [Ab] head.
Or [Cm] the Ferris wheel junkies,
[Db] will spend their forever in [Ab] sin.
And when [Eb] I see you,
blanket of [Db] stars,
covered in my [Ab] bed.
[Cm] Hey [Ab] Mrs.
Water, [Eb] don't go.
I [Cm] said, hey [Ab] Mrs.
Water, [Eb] I don't know.
[Cm] But hey [Ab] Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't [Ab] you talk to me.
All the blue light reflection,
[Db] covering [Eb] my mind when I [Ab] sleep.
And the lovesick rejections,
that [Db] accompany [Eb] the company [Ab] I keep.
All [Cm] the razor perceptions,
that [Db] cut just a little [Ab] too deep.
Hey I can bleed as well as anyone,
but [Db] I need someone to help me sleep.
[Ab]
So I throw my hand into [Db] the air,
and it [Eb]
swims in [Ab] the breeze.
It's just a brief interruption,
and [Db] a swirly gust [Eb] of sparkle jets [Ab] through.
Well [Cm] I know I don't know you,
[Db] and you're probably not [Ab] what you seem.
[Eb] Oh but I'd sure like to find out,
so why [Db] don't you climb down off that [Ab] blueish green.
[Cm] Hey [Db] Mrs.
[Ab] Water, [Eb] don't turn.
[Cm] Hey Mrs.
[Ab] Water, [Eb] I burn for [Cm] you.
Hey Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't [Ab] you talk to me.
When the last king of Hollywood,
[Db] shatters his [Eb]
glass on [Ab] the floor.
And orders another,
[Fm] well I wonder what [Eb] he did that [Ab] for.
It's [Cm] when I know that I have to get out,
[Db] cause I have been there [Ab] before.
So [Eb] I gave up my seat at [Db] the bar,
and I head for [Ab] the door.
We drove out to the desert,
just [Db] to lie down [Eb] beneath this mole [Ab] of snow.
We stand up in the palace,
like it's [Db] the last of the [Eb] great pioneer [Ab] town balls.
Oh we [Cm] shout out these songs against [Db] the clang of electric [Ab] guitars.
Ah you [Eb] can see a million miles tonight,
[Db] but you can't get very [Ab] far.
Oh you [Eb] can see a million miles tonight,
[Db] but you can't get very [Ab] far.
[Cm] Hey [Ab] Mrs.
Water, [Eb] I won't touch.
[Cm] Hey [Ab] Mrs.
Water, [Eb] it's not much.
[Cm] But hey [Db] Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't you [Ab] talk to me.
[Cm] Hey Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't [Bb] you talk to [Ab] me.
[Cm] Hey [Db] Mrs.
[Eb] Water, won't [Bb] you talk [Ab] to me.
