Capo: 4th fret
Key: E
Am Well I'll be damned F Here comes your ghost again C But that's not unusual G It's just that the moon is full Am And you happened to call Am F And here I sit, hand on the telephone C Hearing a voice I'd known G A couple of light years ago Am Heading straight for a fall Am As I remember your eyes F Were bluer than robin's eggs C "My poetry was lousy", you said G Where are you calling from? Am A booth in the Midwest Am Ten years ago F I bought you some cuff links C You brought me something G And we both know what memories can bring Am They bring diamonds and rust Am You burst on the scene F Already a legend C The unwashed phenomenon G The original vagabond Am You strayed into my arms Am And there you stayed F Temporarily lost at sea C The Madonna was yours for free G Yes the girl on the half-shell Am Would keep you unharmed G Now I see you standing with leaves falling around F An' snow in your hair G Now you're smiling out the window F Of that hotel over Washington Square Am Our breath comes out white clouds G Mingles and hangs in the air Am Speaking strictly for me G7 We both could have died then and there Am Now you're telling me F You're not nostalgic C Then give me another word for it G You were always so good with words Am And at keeping things vague Am 'Cause I need some of that vagueness now F It's all coming back too clearly C Oh, loved you dearly G And if you're offering me diamonds and rust Am I've already paid...
