Em  D  C  B7


[Verse]

Em         D                 
   You got the lights on in the 
        C
afternoon
        B7                         
And the nights are drawn out long
   Em

           D                     
And you're kissing to cut through 
     C
the gloom
       B7                          
With a cough drop coloured tongue
  Em

         D                         
You were sitting in the corner with
     C
 the coats all piled high
      B7                           
And I thought you might be mine
 Em

     D                             
In a small world on an 
   C
exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
       B7
In the right place and time


[Chorus]

         Em                        
When the zeros line up on the 
  D
twenty four hour clock
         C                      
When you know who's calling even 
            B7
though the number is blocked
         Em                      
When you walked around your house 
            D
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
        C             B7
And your knee socks

[Verse]

Em           D                C
   Well, you cured my January blues,
          B7                     Em
yeah, you made it all alright
        D                          
I got a feeling I might've lit the 
     C
very fuse
         B7                        
that you were trying not to light
  Em

           D                       
You were a stranger in my phonebook
       C
 I was acting like I knew
        B7                    Em
Cause I had nothing to lose
         D                         
When the winter's in full swing and
             C
 your dreams just aren't coming true
         B7
Ain't it funny what you'll do?


[Chorus]

         Em                        
When the zeros line up on the 
  D
twenty four hour clock
         C                      
When you know who's calling even 
            B7
though the number is blocked
         Em                      
When you walked around your house 
            D
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
        C             B7
And your knee socks


[Bridge]

Am                           C
In late afternoon, the ghost in your
 room
                Em            
That you always thought didn't 
               D
approve of you knocking boots
                  C             
Never stopped you letting me get 
                  B7
hold of the sweet spot
                     Em
By the scruff of your  knee socks

Em
You and me could've been a team
Each had a half of a king-and-queen 
seat
Like the beginning of Mean Streets 
you could Be My Baby

(The zeros lined up but the number's
 blocked)
(When you've come undone)


[Chorus]

         Em                        
When the zeros line up on the 
  D
twenty four hour clock
         C                      
When you know who's calling even 
            B7
though the number is blocked
         Em                      
When you walked around your house 
            D
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
        C            B7
And your knee socks

         Em                        
When the zeros line up on the 
  D
twenty four hour clock
         C                      
When you know who's calling even 
            B7
though the number is blocked
         Em                      
When you walked around your house 
            D
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
        C            B7
And your knee socks
