[Intro] Em D C B7 Em D C B7 [Verse]
Em         D                         C
   You got the lights on in the afternoon

        B7                            Em
And the nights are drawn out long

           D                          C
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom

       B7                            Em
With a cough drop coloured tongue

         D                              C
You were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high

      B7                            Em
And I thought you might be mine

     D                                C
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night

       B7
In the right place and time
[Chorus]
         Em                          D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock

         C                                  B7
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked

         Em                                  D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste

        C             B7
And your knee socks
[Verse]
Em           D                C
   Well, you cured my January blues,

          B7                     Em
yeah, you made it all alright

        D                               C
I got a feeling I might've lit the very fuse

         B7                          Em
that you were trying not to light

           D                              C
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew

        B7                    Em
Cause I had nothing to lose

         D                                      C
When the winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true

         B7
Ain't it funny what you'll do?
[Chorus]
         Em                          D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock

         C                                  B7
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked

         Em                                  D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste

        C             B7
And your knee socks
[Bridge]
Am                           C
In late afternoon, the ghost in your room

                Em                           D
That you always thought didn't approve of you knocking boots

                  C                               B7
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot

                     Em
By the scruff of your  knee socks

Em
You and me could've been a team
Each had a half of a king-and-queen seat Like the beginning of Mean Streets you could Be My Baby (The zeros lined up but the number's blocked) (When you've come undone) [Chorus]
         Em                          D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock

         C                                  B7
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked

         Em                                  D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste

        C            B7
And your knee socks

         Em                          D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock

         C                                  B7
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked

         Em                                  D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste

        C            B7
And your knee socks
