[Verse 1]
Gm Fm
I think of tears, I think of rain on shingles
Fm B
I think of rain, I think of roses blue
B Bm
I think of Rose, my heart begins to tremble
Bm Cm
To see the place she's lately gotten to
Em Dm
Gotten to, gotten to
[Verse 2]
Gm Fm
She's gotten to mysterious devotions
Fm B
She's gotten to the zodiac and Zen
B Bm
She's gotten into tarot cards and potions
Bm Cm
She's laying her religion on her friends
Em Dm
On her friends, on her friends
[Verse 3]
Gm Fm
Friends who come to ask her for their future
Fm B
Friends who come to find they can't be friends
B Bm
Because of signs and seasons that don't suit her
Bm Cm
She'll prophesy your death, she won't say when
Em Dm
Won't say when, won't say when
[Verse 4]
Gm Fm
When all the black cards come you cannot barter
Fm B
No, when all your stars are stacked you cannot win
B Bm
She'll shake her head and treat you like a martyr
Bm Cm
It is her blackest spell she puts you in
Em Dm
Puts you in, puts you in
[Verse 5]
Gm Fm
In sorrow she can lure you where she wants you
Fm B
Inside your own self-pity there you swim
B Bm
In sinking down to drown her voice still haunts you
Bm Cm
And only with your laughter can you win
Em Dm
Can you win, can you win
[Verse 6]
Gm Fm
You win the lasting laurels with your laughter
Fm B
It reaches like an arm before you sink
B Bm
To win the solitary truth you're after
Bm Cm
You dare not ask the priestess how to think
Em Dm N.C.
How to think, how to think
[Verse 7]
Gm Fm
I think of tears, I think of rain on shingles
Fm B
I think of rain, I think of roses blue
B Bm
I think of Rose, my heart begins to tremble
Bm Cm
To see the place she's lately gotten to
Em Dm
Gotten to, gotten to to to to to, to to to to to to to
Gm
to-ooo
