G C
New front door, same address
G
Same front step, same back-porch
Am
Geraniums to the terrace
G C
Sold my shoes to pay the rent
D Em
I won't be needing them
D Em
I won't be leaving too soon
G C
Oh my dear, do undress
G Am
You look so different in those new shoes
G C
To impress someone you have never met
D Em
Someone you already know
D Em
Is waiting behind my front door
G D
And by the door you know I'll wait
Em C G
Oh, by the window, by the gate
D Em C
I'm waiting for your sound
G D
So softly, dear, don't hesitate
Em C G
The lion looms along the lake
D Em C
And swallows every sound
G C
But oh, I wish that I could take
G
That simple lonely way
C
That long cold lonely way
D
But these days it takes more than two feet
C
It takes four to fill the road
G D
I fend and swing the axe at for
G D
I've trampled all over the place
Em C G
Swung to and fro and still no state
D Em C
Has held me in its bounds
G D
But by the bridge I'd like to stay
Em C G
Oh, by the ocean, by the bay
D Em C
And hope that you'll come around
G C
Oh, my dear, do undress
G Am
You look so different in those new clothes
G C
To impress someone you have never met
D Em
I'm the one needing you
D Em
I'm the one with no shoes
G D
So by the door you know I'll wait
Em C G
Oh, looking out the golden gate
D Em C Em
She yawns into the morning...
