Verse 1
FDmCFDmC
Fifteen keys, fifteen keys hang on a chain
FDmCFDmC
The chain is joined, the chain is joined and forms a ring
FDmCFDmC
The ring is in, the ring is in a woman's hand
FDmCFDmC
She's walking on, she's walking on the dusty ground
Chorus 1
F#mG
The dusty ground's a dead-end track
ABm
The neighbors won't be coming back
F#mG
Fifteen gardens overgrown
ABm
Fifteen houses falling down
Verse 2
FDCFDCFDmCFDmC
The woman's old, the woman's old and dressed in black
FDmCFDmC
She keeps her hands, she keeps her hands behind her back
FDmCFDmC
Imagine what, imagine what her eyes have seen
FDmCFDmC
We ask but she, we ask but she won't let us in
Chorus 2
F#G
A key so simple and so small
ABm
How can it mean no chance at all?
F#G
A key, a promise, or a wish
ABm
How can it mean such hopelessness?
