Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth by Primitive Radio Gods
Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth
C F
Jan lays down and wrestles in her sleep
C Em F
Moonlight spills on comic books And superstars in magazines
C F
An old friend calls and tells us where to meet
C Em F
Her plane takes off from Baltimore And touches down on Bourbon Street
C F
We sit outside and argue all night long
C Em F
About a god we've never seen But never fails to side with me
C F
Sunday comes and all the papers say
C Em F
Ma Teresa's joined the mob And happy with her full time job
C F C Em F C
Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do
C F
Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?
C Em F
Does summer come for everyone? Can humans do as prophets say?
C F
And if I die before I learn to speak
C Em F
Can money pay for all the days I lived awake but half asleep?
PIANO INTERLUDE
C F
A life is time, they teach us growing up
C Em F
The seconds ticking killed us all A million years before the fall
C F
You ride the waves and don't ask where they go
C Em F
You swim like lions through the crest And bathe yourself on zebra flesh
C F C Em F C
Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do, Do do do do do do
C F C
I've been downhearted baby, I've been downhearted baby,
Em F C
Ever since the day we met, Ever since the day we met
