IntroAVerse 1A
I thought I saw you in the Battleship
DBm
but it was only a look-a-like
A
She was nothing but a vision trick
DBm
Under the warning light
F#mAF#m
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
A
But my chances turned to toast
DBmAF#mAF#m
When I asked her if I could call her your name
Verse 2A
I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
DBm
Huddled up in a wicker chair
A
I wandered over for a closer look
DBm
And kissed whoever was sitting there
F#mAF#m
She was close, and she held me very tightly
AD
'Til I asked awfully politely, please
BmAF#mAF#mE
Can I call you her name
ChorusDBm
And I elongated my lift home,
F#mD
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
E
And kept my shortcuts to myself
InstrumentalADEVerse 3A
I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak,
DBm
Messing with the smoke alarm,
A
It was too loud for me to hear her speak,
DBm
And she had a broken arm,
F#mAF#m
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
AD
And she wrote it out in letra-set
BmC#m
No, you can't call me her name
BridgeAC#m
Tell me where's your hiding place
AC#m
I'm worried I'll forget your face
F#m
And I've asked everyone
BmEE6 optional here
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
ChorusDBm
And I elongated my lift home,
F#mD
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
Dm
And kept my shortcuts to myself
