The waltzy bit at the Am Am/G:

[Verse 1]
C Fmaj7 When I saw the first time G C Fmaj7 The thunder came crashing C Fmaj7 Your new blue eyeliner G C Fmaj7 Caught my distraction Am Am/G Like we were two lovers Fmaj7 Forming from friction G F C Your mouth caught my ear G C F C G With such perfect diction Fmaj7 C There I let you tie my hands back G And take me
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C G Oh Lorraine, on a Saturday morning Dm G C Oh Lorraine, with your soft burning hands
[Verse 2]
C Fmaj7 We fell asleep in G C Fmaj7 The back of the warehouse C Fmaj7 I woke to you needing G C Fmaj7 And covering my mouth Am Am/G Like we were hummingbirds Fmaj7 Screaming at ravens G F C You started to move me G C F C G From fact into fable Fmaj7 C G There I let you take me under the table
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C G Oh Lorraine, on a Saturday morning Dm G C Oh Lorraine, with your soft burning hands
