[E] The morning sun touched like the own
[A] the eyes of [E] Lucy Jordan
in our white suburban bedroom
in [B] our white Suburban town
As [E] she lay there
leave the covers
[A] dreaming of
a thousand [E] lovers
till [B] the world
turned to orange
and the room [F#m] went [E] spinning round Yeah
At [A] the age of 37 she [E] realized
she'd never ride through Paris
in a sports car
with the warm wind
in her [B] hair
[C#] [B] And [E] she let the phone keep ringing
and [A] she sat there softly singing
[E] singing
[B] pretty nursery rhymes she'd [E] [B] memorize
in [A] her daddy's easy [E] chair Her husband
he was off to work
and [A] the kids
were off to [E] school and there
were oh so many ways
for [B] her to spend a day
She [E] could clean
the house for hours
[A] or rearrange the [E] flowers
or [B] run naked
down a shady street
screaming
all [E] the way
At [A] the age of 37 she [E] realized
she'd never ride through Paris
in a sports car
with the warm wind
in her [B] hair
And [E] she let that phone keep ringing
and [A] she sat there softly [E] singing
pretty [B] nursery rhymes she'd memorize
in [A] her daddy's easy [E] chair
The evening sun
touched gently on her hair
[A] The eyes of Lucy [E] Jordan
on the rooftop
where she climbed
when all the laughter
grew too loud
[B]
She [E] bowed and curtsied
to the man [A] who reached
and offered [E] her his hand
[B] and led her
down to the long white car that waited
[E] past the crowd
At [A] the age of 37 she [E] knew
she'd find forever
as they rode
along through Paris
with the warm
wind in [B] her hair
[E] the wind in [B] her hair
[E]
