Verse 1
Am        F               D      G
I bought you tickets for the waterfalls
     E     F         G         Am
And you poured away all the change
    Am        C           F    F  F  F  G
Trained your bicycle to dance
         Am             C            F7       Bb
Told it tales of window boxes and people with locks
            C      D       E
While you filed away the time
     Ab        Bb       C   D      E
And lost the place in the river.
Verse 2
    Am        F        D        G
Couldn't do anything about the days
        E      F       G          Am
But I helped with some of the nights
     Am        C           F    F  F  F  G
You worked my blisters to the bone
Am             C            F7       Bb
Playing songs of tiny men and bridges in wine
           C      D       E
While you led the time astray
     Ab        Bb       C   D      E
And lost your head in the rainbow.

Bridge 1 (to 3)       G      D     F

Bridge 2  (to 4)     C   G   Bb   F

Verse 3/4
 Am        F               D      G
You never saw anything glittering
   E     F       G     Am
But you had to melt it down
     Am        C           F    F  F  F  G
I made your rivers all run dry
Am             C            F7       Bb
Soaked them up with train timetables and carpets of lies
        C       D       E
And I listened to your smile,
     Ab      Bb      G      A    G   A  G   A  G   A  etc to fade
&  found my place in the morning.
