G# D#
She laughs and tosses herself down on the bed
G# D#
Traces circles on misty window panes down deep in her head
G# D# A#
She laughs at the orange halos down on the street below
G# D#
And she says, “It’s all the same, it's all the same.”
She got a pretty red car to go with her pretty red eyelashes
Gonna make the world better one pretty red fingernail at a time
Between the darkness truth comes down to her in flashes
She says, “Don’t look at me like that. Happiness aint no kinda crime.”
She looks back at me, strums “Help”
She says, “I need somebody, too.”
Puts her cigarette out on the floor
She says, “I don’t know what else to do.”
“Maybe it’s just me, and all the trees are dead
Maybe I just haven’t come too far. You know I just haven't come too far.”
Fmin Cmin
So, I put something away for a rainy day
Fmin Cmin
Tucked it down inside where nobody could see
Fmin Cmin A#
And now it’s pouring down, but I’ve got nothing to say
G# D#
I've got no one to be with, no one to be
“I’m all right,” she says. “Don’t worry.”
She’s apologetic, but she’s not sorry.”
Laughing and shooting a smoke ring towards the ceiling
She says, “It’s hard to be alone with all these feelings.”
So, I put something away for a rainy day
Tucked it down inside where nobody could see
And now it’s pouring down, but I’ve got nothing to say
No one to be with, no one to be
A# Cmin
She rushes in pale and empty
A# Cmin
Alone and scattered and scared at the world.
A# G#
She finds a finds a faithful friend in the moments that never passed
D#
But they were never meant to last
So she he hides from a gray world under pink blankets and pajamas.
She doesn’t like what she sees, gonna dream up another world.
She says, “Take me away” and she knows that she’s worth it.
Through the misted windowpanes a new world will unfurl.
