INTRO: DmFCG
VERSE
FG
There's a place in the town, a statue,
She'd make me wait beneath,
But its magnificent archways, archways,
That's where I'd go to weep.
PRECHORUS
AmG
I'm right up onto the counter; Showgirl,
DmAmG
Perfect the slow body-roll.
AmG
And breakaway from the anger, oh, hoe,
DmAmG
Just got to let it all go,
CHORUS
FG
But she loves me
AmCFG
More than anyone who wouldn't lay a hand.
AmCFGAm
She keeps mace spray,
CFGAmC
For you can't rely on the common man.
VERSE
FG
That night up under the starlight,
Holly, you call, 'the great blistering blue,'
A strange formation came down from the ceiling,
And it began to move.
AmG
And so the shattering shards of glass fell,
DmAmG
And glistened this way and that,
But she would say I won't find my way through the plaster;
I'm an empty hourglass in the sand,
CHORUS
FGAmC
But she loves me,
More than anyone who wouldn't speak like that.
She keeps mace spray,
For you can't rely on the common man.
FGAmC
But it is alright,
Here in the time and the place I am,
You leave a light on all night,
Just to remind of the place I am.
