Em
I want to find this girl I know

I need to take her out
  D
I set a snare in evening air
        Em
Made of faith and hope and doubt

I want to spend some time with her

Learn the secrets of her trade
  D
I wouldn't mean to cross the line
    C
And look into the other side
B
Forbidden to my kind
A
Forbidden to my kind

Em
I need to hang out with my love

The raven-headed sprite
  D
I know I'll never dance like her
   Em
Or keep her up at nine

I need to hang around with her

I need to let her know

     D
Her cause is mine

I'm but a slave
  C
I look into her wondrous gaze
    B
And taste the strangest core
    A
And make the purest noise

Em           D                             Em
What I would do to make the girl stand out in the rain
           D                               Em
I serve my window watching close, she will appear again
            G
Still polishing her crazy hair
                 F
Still whispering curlies, drunk on song
           Em                                D
If I could only right my wrongs and take her to her favorite place
            Em
And steal a melody
              D
'Cause I need only see her face
           C
A thousand worries fall away
          G
And music rushes in

Em
Listen to the sound of life

Drink deep of the day
D
Wait for her, but don't obsess
     Em
She called beyond the way

Winds will blow and stones will rage

The music's always sad
D
Money tends to disappear
C
Beauty crumbles with the years
    Bm
But music is for us
Am
Music is for us

Em           D                             Em
What I would do to make the girl stand out in the rain
           D                               Em
I serve my window watching close, she will appear again
           G
Still polishing her crazy hair
                 F
Still whispering curlies, drunk on song
           Em                                D
If I could only right my wrongs and take her to her favorite place
            Em
And steal a melody
              D
'Cause I need only see her face
           C
A thousand worries fall away
          G
And music rushes in

Em         D                               Em
If I could only see her face and know that she was close
           D                          Em
There is a deeper logic here, the everlasting muse
           G
I left the danger for a night
           F
I left the sadness for a day
              Em
And know that I am in safe hands
                D
She'll peel the filth and old cigar
        Em
An everlasting song
              D
She waves her money straight with zeal
              C
I know she'll start without delay
              G
A tapestry of words
         D
A subtle gift to modern rock
             C
She says, be popular, play pop
             G
And you will win my love
         D
A subtle gift to modern rock
             C
She says, be popular, play pop
             G
And you will win my love
