[Verse 1]
Stormy- [A]eye[Am]d on the edge [G]of [Asus4]dawn:[A]
nose pressed again[Asus4]st the
triple [A]glaze.[Asus4][A]
[Am]Floor to [A]ceiling, [G]wall to [A]wall,
[Am]si l[A]ent tr[Am]affic streams both w[A]ays.
[F#m]Along the fussy freeway
[E]driver[F#sus4] s[F#m]
[F#sus4]dream of sunday barb[B]ecues.[E]
[F#m]Of a s[D]udden, seems I can barely
face [E]my self: no face [C#m]to lose.
[C]Call the bosses. Call supervisors.
Won't [Eb]be in today to[F] work for yo[G]u.
[Am][A][Asus4][A][Asus4][A][Asus4]
E- [A]mail that girl who's work
[Am]ing [C]nights.
She can [A]dress down for this wind [Am]and rain.
[A]Leave her new Kor[Am]ean com[C]pac[Am]t:[A]
let some cabbie [Am]take the strain.
[F#m]Take a shower. T[E]ake big espresso.
[F#m]Take to the hills, a[B]nd take a v[E]iew.
[D]Little black dress stretching over
[E]hard crystal peaks: soft val[C#m] leys too.
[C]Call the bosses. [Am]Call [C]for nurses.
Un[Eb]fit today [F]to work for [G]you.

[Verse 2]
[D][F]
No wet [D]excuses. Absent without leave.
[F]I'll be her[D] dayshift driver: exotic engineer.

edge
of night:
[A](December, eastern [Am]time: late
[A]afternoon.)
Atlantic City [Am]tight [Em]behind.
[Am]Trum[A]p Casino calls p[Am]ontoon[A].
[F#m]Gristle- burger[E], frazzled fries
[F#m]en d this rom[E]antic int[B]erlude.
[E]Tom[D]orrow morning's
sweet awakening
[E]could hardly prove to be [C#m]as rude.

[F]time [G]in lieu.

I was her [Dm]dayshift driver: exotic engineer.
