INTRO: E A9 Bsus
E A9
Sun comes up, it's Tuesday morning
Bsus
Hits me straight in the eye
A9 E
Guess you forgot to close the blind last night
A9 Bsus A9
Oh that's right, I forgot, it was me
A E
I sure do miss the smell of black coffee in the morning,
A E
The sound of water splashing all over the bathroom,
A E
The kiss that you would give me even though I was sleeping,
Bsus A9 E
But I kind of like the feel of this extra few feet in my bed
E A9
Telephone's ringing, but I don't answer it
Bsus A9 E
'Cause everybody knows that good news always sleeps till noon
A9
Guess it's tea and toast for breakfast again
Bsus A9
Maybe I'll add a little T.V. too
A E
No milk! God, how I hate that
A E
Guess I'll go to the corner, get breakfast from Jenny
A E
She's got a black eye this morning, "Jen how'd ya get it?"
Bsus A9 E
She says, "Last night, Bobby got a little bit out of hand"
E A9
Lunchtime, I start to dial your number
Bsus A9
Then I remember so I reach for something to smoke
E A9
And anyways I'd rather listen to Coltrane
Bsus A9
Than go through all that sh*t again
A E
There's something about an afternoon spent doing nothing
A E
Just listening to records and watching the sun falling
A E
Thinking of things that don't have to add up to something
Bsus
And this spell won't be broken
A9 E
By the sound of keys scr*ping in the lock
E A9
Maybe tonight it's a movie
Bsus A9
With plenty of room for elbows and knees
E
A bag of popcorn all to myself,
A9
Black and white with a strong female lead
Bsus A9
And if I don't like it, no debate, I'll leave
A E
Here comes that feeling that I'd forgotten
A
How strange these streets feel
E
when you're alone on them
A E
Each pair of eyes just filled with suggestion
Bsus A9
So I lower my head, make a beleine for home
E
Seething inside
E A9
Funny, I'd never noticed
Bsus A9 E
The sound the streetcars make as they pass my window
A9 Bsus A9
Which reminds me that I forgot to close the blind again
A E
Yeah, sure I'll admit there are times when I miss you
A E
Especially like now when I need someone to hold me
A E
But there are some things that can never be forgiven
Bsus
And I just gotta tell you
A9 E
That I kinda like this extra few feet in my bed
