[Am] [Dm] [E]
[B] [Am] [F] [Dm] [D]
[E] [B] [Am] It's four in the morning, [F] the end of December [Dm] I'm writing you now just to [Em] see if you're
better [Am] New York is cold [F] but I like where I'm living
[Dm] There's music on [Em] Clinton Street all through the [Am] evening
Tell me [Bm] you're building [Am] your house [Bm] deep in the desert
[Am] Are you living [G] on nothing now?
[Am] Hope you're keeping some [G] kind of record, yes
[C] Jason came by with a [G] lock of your hair Said you [Ab] gave it [A] to her [Am] that night
When you planned [Bm] to go clear [G] Oh, did [F]
you ever [Em] go clear?
[Am] Well, [A] the last time we saw [F] you you looked so much older
[D] The famous blue raincoat [Em] was down at the [Am] shoulder
You stood in the station [F] and you met every train
[Dm] But she never showed [Em] up, I mean Lily Marling
[Am] So you treated [Bm] some woman [Am] to a flake [G] of your life
[Am] And [G] when she got on she [Am] was [G] nobody's wife, [C] yes
See you there with [A] a rose in [G] your teeth
One more thin [A] gypsy [Am] thief
Well, I see [Bm] Jane's awake, [G] oh
[F] She sends [E] her regard
[Em]
[Am] [E] [F] [Dm]
[Em] [Am] [Dm]
[E] [Em] [Am] Well, what can I tell you?
[F] What can I tell you?
[Dm] What can I possibly [Em] say?
[Am] I guess that I miss you, [F] I guess I forgive you
[Dm] I'm glad that you stood in [Em] my way
[Am] And if you ever [Bm] come by here, be it [Am] for Jane [G] or for me
I [Am] want you to know your enemy is [G] sleeping
I [Am] want you to know you were [G] murderous, yes
[C] Thanks for the trouble [G] you took from her eyes
I [A] thought it was [Am] there for good
So you never really [Bm] tried, [G] oh
[C] Jane came by with a [G] lock of your hair
Said you gave it [Am] to her that night when you planned to [Bm] go [G] clear, oh
[F] Silly [E] friend
