[Em] [Emadd9] [Em] [Em] [Emadd9] [Em] [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
Well [Em] I'll be damned
Here comes your [C] ghost again
But that's not un-[G]usual, it's just that the [D] moon is full
And you happened to [Em] call [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
And [Em] here I sit
Hand on the [C] telephone
Hearing a [G] voice I'd known a couple of [D] light years ago
Heading straight for a [Em] fall [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
As [Em] I remember your eyes
Were bluer than [C] robin's eggs
My poetry was [G] lousy you said
Where are you [D] calling from?
A booth in the [Em] Midwest [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
[Em] Ten years ago
I bought you some [C] cufflinks, you brought me [G] something
We both know what [D] memories can bring
They bring diamonds and [Em] rust [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
[Em] Well you burst on the scene
Already a [C] legend
The unwashed phe-[G]nomenon, the original [D] vagabond
You strayed into my [Em] arms [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
And [Em] there you stayed, temporarily [C] lost at sea
The Madonna was [G] yours for free
Yes the girl on the [D] half-shell would keep you [Em] unharmed [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
Now [Bm] I see you standing with brown leaves falling around and snow in your [Am] hair
Now [Bm] you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington [Am] Square
Our [C] breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the [G] air
Speaking [Fmaj7] strictly for me
We both could have died then and [G] there [B7] [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
[Em] Now you're telling me you're not nos-[C]talgic
Then give me another [G] word for it, you who are so [D] good with words
And at keeping things [Em] vague [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
{c: }
[Em] Because I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too [C] clearly
Yes I loved you [G] dearly
And if you're offering me [D] diamonds and rust I've already [Em] paid
{c: }
[Em] [Emadd9] [Em] [Em] [Emadd9] [Em]
