This Girl Is Taking Bets

Am
This Girl is a stencil of a 
brushstroke in the rain
E Am
She's a ghost of the city she's a 
body through the windscreen
E Am
This girl is the snowfall where the 
spring should have been
E Am
She's the stains on the pages of a 
top shelf magazine

This girl is a black eye she's a 
bruise on your knee
E Am
She's the ashes of the people that 
you really meant to be
E Am
This girl's the resurrection she's 
the comeback
E Am
She's the absinthe and whiskey she 
is poetry and Prozac

Am
This girl is taking bets this girl's
 a silhouette cant you see

Am
This girl is the flutter of fake 
lashes in the mirror
E Am
She's a ragged edged fedora or a 
Spanish souvenir

This girl is the clean cut she's the
 frozen ground
E
She's a knife drawn down the side 
street when there's no-one else 
around

This girls a forged ticket to a 
Lloyd Webber show
E Am
She's the far end of the graveyard 
up where the nettles grow
E Am
This girl is the rainbow in the dewy
 eyed stares
E Am
She's the name tag on the toe of 
your long dead love affairs

This girl is taking bets....

Am
This girl is the wild smile the icy 
stare
E Am
She's the crackle of the static 
she's the curses she's The prayers
E Am
This girl is the junkie in the 
children's matinee
E
She's the 4 minute warning
Am
She is hell to pay

Am
This girl is the plunge pool she is 
cocaine and Kodak
E Am
Now she's out setting sail on the 
ocean of the soundtrack
This girl is the shaking hand the 
rattling cup
E Am
With a button and a note saying 
things are looking up
