Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
This [Am]one's called
Black
Widow
Station.
It's the kind of song you might want to sing if you think
that your boyfriend has another girlfriend.
Or [Dm]two.[Am][Dm]
[Am][Dm][Am]
I am at your halfway station,
darling, and I've been waiting for your train
I [Dm]am at your halfway [D]station, darling,
and I've been waiting for [Am]your train
You've [Dm]been too long, darling,
[Am]an d it looks like rain.
I have seen these strange little girls
who come up to you
and they don't know when to stop.
I have [D]watched your [Dm]eye as
it follows the line of [Am]the leg
right up to the top.
[F]Now
Betty
Sue an[Am]d
[F]Millie
Jane have come around [Am]to play again
[F]But I am standing at your doo[C]r and I
[G]do believe I'll [D]tell them to [Am]go home
There's this black widow spider, darling,
and she's been walking on her own
There's [D]this black [Dm]widow who's funny now,
darling, and she's been walkin' [D]on by[Am]
We've [Dm]had this little
heart -to -heart and
[Am]I, I think I understand

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 2]
It's a funny [Am]situation,
I mean what am I to do?
With
Lisa [Dm]in the upstairs [D]room and
[Am]Joan and
[Dm]Martha too
[F]I can't come down to breakf[Am]ast
Cause the plates have
[F]all been used
And it's as crowded as a subway car
[Am]And I think that you're confused
Well, I [F]would wait at your [C]station
But I [G]do believe it's [Am]time
[D]that I went [Am]home
And I'm at
Black
Widow
Station, darling
And I've been waiting for your train
I'm [D]at
Black
[Dm]Widow
[Am]Station, [D]darling, and I've been
waiting [Am]for your train
You've [Dm]been too long,
[Am]darling, and it looks like rain
You've [Dm]been too long, darling,
[Am]an d it looks like rain

[Interlude 2]

you.
Thank you.
Thank
Well, let's see.
I mean, I've sung all the songs I like to sing,
now I guess I'll sing one that I
wrote a long time ago.
Thank you.
There was a friend of mine once who complained to me that I only,
you know, my fans are very
helpful sometimes, they give me
lots of advice. you know, like in
The
Queen
and the
Soldier, like, what does the
Queen need to kill the soldier off for?
You know, he says, why couldn't he just spend
the night and leave in the morning?
So I was like, thanks.
That's like the abridged version.
But anyway, so one
comment he made was that he thought that I only
wrote about two things, those
things being romance and mental health and like
couldn't I liven it up a little so I thought about
it and I said well this song is called the rent song and
it's kind of like the I was thinking of
what else is there that like really but I've been told
since then that this is really a mental
health song and so it doesn't
really qualify.
Thank you.
