A
I thought I saw you in the battleship
DBm
but it was only a look-a-like
A
She was nothing but a vision trick
DBm
under the warning light
F#mAF#m
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
ADBm
But my chances turned to toast when i asked her, if i could call her your name
A
I thought I saw you in the rusty hook
DBm
huddled up in a wicker chair
A
I wondered over for a closer look
DBm
and kissed whoever was sitting there
FmAF#m
She was close and she held me very tightly
ADBmA
So that I softly politely please, can I call you her name
DBm
And I elongated my lift home
F#mD
yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
EAADE
and kept my shortcuts to myself
A
I thought I saw you in the parrots beak
DBm
messing with the smoke alarm
A
it was too loud for me to hear her speak
DBm
and she had a broken arm
F#mA
it was close, so close that the walls were wet
F#mADBmC#m
and she wrote it as electroset, no you cant call me her name
AC#m
Tell me where's your hiding place
AC#m
I'm worried I'll forget your face
F#m
and i've asked everyone
BmE
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
DBm
I elongated my lift home
F#mD
Yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
D
and kept my shortcuts to myself
A
I saw your sister in a cornerstone
DBm
on the phone to the middle man
A
When I saw that she was on her own
DBm
I thought she might understand
F#mAF#m
She was close, well you couldn't get much closer
AD
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes
BmA
You can call me anything you want
