[Intro 1]
[Em][D][C][G][Bm]
[Em][D][C]
[G]
[Bm]She

[Verse 1]
[Em]wears her
Japanese hilt [D]slippers
She's standing in a
[C]blizzard of post -it notes
On an [G]afghan rug [D]and smiles
[Bm]I co[Em]mb a hem through my hair I'm[D] fumbling for a word,
but [C]it's not there
There's just a [G]blind spot in my
[Bm]memory[Em][D][C][G]
[D]
A [Em]friend wrote me a letter
from his sac[D]red break
He says he kind of [C]found religion now
He [G]says he's doing [D]fine
[Bm]A mo[Em]torbike is roaring by outsid[D]e I
think it would be nice to [C]take a ride
Or spend a [G]while in someone
[Bm]else's [B]head[Em][D][C][G]
[D]On the [Em]streets the psychedelic alcoholic
[D]from number 14 passes me [C]by
He grins as if [G]he knew something
[D]Rent [Em]a flat, says a poster
Rent [D]a thought, rent a lifestyle
Today [C]I watched a shopping cart duel
In the [G]supermarket [Bm]aisle[B]
[Em]No sweets in the sweet shop[D]
[Bm]No wind in the t[D]ree [C]tops
There's [G]something in [D]the [F#m]air[Em]
Heard he's now in
October
[D]All [Bm]the drunkards are [C]sober
And there's [G]something in
[F#m]the ai[Em]r[D][C][G]
[D]
[Em]All the while I think I gotta leave
[D]No one's nice these days
And [C]no one pays their bills
And I've been told [G]my
heart's in [D]perfect shape
[Em]Salesmen mumble bible quot
[D]ings on the radio like tinnitus
[C]Irony is over, take the trash [G]out,
who [Bm]said [B]that?
[Em]No sweets in the s[D]weet shop,
[Bm]no wind in the tree [D]tops[C]
There's [G]something in [D]the [Em]air
At least now in
October[D],
[Bm]all the drunkards [D]are [C]sober
There's [G]something in [F#m]the ai[Em]r[D][C][G][Bm][Em]
[D][C][Am][C][G][Bm]
[Em][Bm][D][C][G][Bm]
[Em]She wears her
Japanese silk [D]slippers
She's standing in a [C]bliz
zard of post -it notes
on an afghan [G]rug and [Bm]smiles
[Em]the world is turned into a blur
[D]with only random scenes in [C]focus
cut out images [G]I cannot pos
[Bm]sibly [B]ex [Em]plain[D][C][G]
[F#m]
[Em]no sweets in t[D]he sweet shop
[Bm]no wind in the t[D]ree to[C]ps
And there's [G]something in [D]the air
[Em]Heard he's now in
[D]October
[Bm]All the drunkards [D]are sober[C]
And there's [G]something in [F#m]the air
[Em]No sweets in t[Bm]he sweet shop
No wind in the [D]tree[C]tops
And there's [G]something in [D]the [Bm]air[Em]
Heard he's now in
[Bm]October
All the drunkards [D]are [C]sober
And there's [G]something
in [F#m]the air
