Verse 1
G
I hear you
just like the night
C
To play tricks when you're try
D
G
C
G
in' to be so quiet
We sit here stranded
C
D
G
They're all doing our best to deny it
D
Where Louise holds her hand for a brain,
G
tempting you to defy it
C
G
Lights flicker from the opposite wall
C
G
In this room the heat pipes just call
C
The country music stations play it soft
G
But there's nothing,
D
Dm
Bb
D
really nothing to tell
G
I'm just Louise and her
C
D
lover's so entwined
G
C
G
And he's given up Joanna,
Dsus4
D
G
that drunkard
C
In the empty lot where the ladies play
Dsus4
G
blind man's buff with a keychain
And the all night girls,
C
they whisper of their scap
Dsus4
D
G
pades out on the D -train
D
We can hear the night watchman
click his flashlight and ask himself
Baby, it's him or them
G
that's really insane
C
G
Me, she's alright, she's just me
C
She's so delicate and
G
seems like a mirror
C
G
But it's all so concise and so clear
D
That Joanna's not real
G
I'm the ghost of electricity
C
D
G
C
G
Hounds in the bones of her face
C
G
And these visions of your love
D
Dsus4
G
C
G
Have now taken my place
Now a little boy lost
C
D
G
He takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery
C
Dsus4
G
He likes to live dangerously
D
And when bringing up her name
Dsus4
G
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
C
You sure got a lot of gall
G
C
G
to be so useless and all
C
Muttering small talk at the wall
G
D
while I'm in the hall
Dsus4
G
Oh, how can I explain?
C
D
G
C
G
It's so hard to get on
C
G
And these visions of Joanna
Dsus4
G
kept me up past the dawn
Inside the museums,
C
D
G
infinity goes up on trial
C
Voices echo, this is what salvation
Dsus4
G
C
G
must be like after a while
D
But Mona Lisa must have
Dm
had the highway blues,
D
Dsus4
D
you can tell by the way she
G
C
G
C
G
C
G
C
smiles
G
D
Dsus4
D
I can't find my knees
G
Shoes and binoculars
C
D
G
C
G
hang from the head of the mule
C
G
But these visions of Johanna,
D
G
they make it all seem so cruel
C
When Hitler speaks to the counties,
Dsus4
D
G
C
G
he's pretending to care for him
Say, name me someone
C
that's not a parasite
D
G
And I'll go out and say a
C
G
prayer for him
D
Work like Louise always says
You can't look at much,
can you, man?
G
C
G
And she herself prepares for him
C
G
And the diocese they have not shown,
C
we see the empty caves
G
now burrowed,
C
where the cave of the stage
G
once had flowed.
C
G
But then Aida slips to the road
C
He writes everything's been written,
G
it's resolved
C
G
On the back of the fist truck that loads
Dsus4
D
While my conscience explodes
G
The harmonica's played
C
Dsus4
D
G
C
G
The skeleton keys in the rain
C
G
And deserts of dwell
D
are now all that remain
G
C
G
C
G
C
G
C
You
G
