DCGD
I had my dream I held your hand on that broad avenue
DCGD
We crossed the road And never spoke to another as we flew
DCGD
We left your man alone in drag laughing there at us
DCGD
A romantic bust a blunder turned explosive blunderbuss
D C G D x4 (drums enter)
piano riff
DCGD
An ancient grand hotel of Persian thread and ivory
DCGD
And when your man would turn his head I'd see you look at me
DCGD
Pools of brown and sea of red and demons in your pocket
DCGD
That same romance Performed a dance inside your silver locket

DCGD
A corner exit not tall enough to walk out standing straight
DCGD
Designed by men so ladies would have to lean back in their gate
DCGD
You grabbed my arm and left with me but you were not allowed to
DCGD
You took me to a public place to quietly blend into
DCGD
Such a trick pretending not to be doing what you want to do
DCGD
But seems like everybody does this every waking moment
D C G D x2
piano riff
DCGD
I laid you down and touched you like the two of us both needed
DCGD
Safe to say that others might not approve of this and pleaded
DCGD
So selfish them? would be their cry and who'd be brave to argue?
DCGD
Doin' what tWO people need is never on the menu
D C G D x2
