[C]

[Verse 1]
[D]Staring out of his [G]window [C]as the world rushes by
[D]Arthur Rob[G]inson clo[C]ses
the glass and replies,
[D]"I dream of [G]Bal[C]lerinas and
I don't know why
[D]but I see [C]Cadillac's sailing

[Verse 2]
[D]I was born on the[C] shores
of the Chesapeake Bay
[D]But Maryland and [G]Virgini
[C]a have faded away
[D]And I keep thinking tom[G]or
[C]row is coming today
[D]So I am [G]endlessly waiting

[Verse 3]
[C]And the com[G]et is com[D]ing bet[C]ween
Me and the girl [G]who could [D]make it all clean
Out [C]there in the shad[G]ow
of the [D]modern machine
[C]Walks St. Rob[G]inson in his
Ca[D]dillac [C]dream.

[Verse 4]
[D]Carrie's down in her bas[G]ement
[C]all toe shoes and twinned
[D]With the girl in the[G] mirror[C] who
spins when she spin[D]s
From where you think [G]you'll end
[C]up to the state that you're in
[D]Your ref[G]lection appro[C]aches
and then recedes again
And [D]the comet

[Verse 5]
[G]is com[D]ing bet[C]ween
Me and the girl [G]who could
make [D]it all clean
[C]Out there in the shadow[G]
of the [D]modern machine
[C]Walks St. Robinson in [Em]his Cadil[D]lac dream.

[Verse 6]
[G]I h[D]ave[C] dr[D]eamed of a black
[C]car that shimmers an[D]d drives
Down the length of the evening
[C]to the car[D]nival side
In a house where regret [C]is a carousel ride
[D]We are [G]spinning and spin[C]ning

[Verse 7]
and spinning and now...
[D]There's a hol[G]e in the ceiling[C]
down through which I fell
[D]There's a girl in a b[G]asement[C]
coming out of her shell
[D]And there are [G]people who will
say [C]that they knew me so well'
I [D]may not go to heaven
[G]I hope you[C] go to hell

[Verse 8]
And the [G]comet is [D]coming [C]between
Me and the [G]girl who could [D]make it all clean
[C]Out there in the shadow[G]
of the [D]modern machine
