Ezra Furman – Queen Of Hearts (Guitar Live)

         G                          Am7
It's the search for a church in the bottom of your purse

  D                            C
A spiritual home which you can take to the mall

    G                           Am7
You dig and you dig but you can only find your wallet

         Bm*           Am7*          C
And your phone with a hundred missed calls

          Em*     D*        C
You could never return them all

      G                                   Am7
And I watch you with your purse from the adjacent coffee table

       D                           C
At the Starbucks they built inside my heart

         G                              Am7
And your make-up starts to run, you can see you're getting older

        Bm*       Am7*         C
You can see your life has been hard

             Em*          D*          C
Your face is worn like an old playing card

             G
The Queen of Hearts

             Am7
The Queen of Hearts

     G                             Am7
I am working in my bedroom, I'm composing all the music

      D                       C
For a film that will never be made

         G                       Am7
It's the story of my life, a one million hour epic

        Bm*          Am7*         C
About a good man who went down in flames

        Em*           D*           C
Who got lost in God's multitude of names

     G                              Am7
I am searching, I am searching I am waving my antenna

          D                                C
Trying to pick up some signal through this dream

       G                   Am7
I'm an ant in a hill but I think and I feel

          Bm*                Am7*           C
And I'm composing these love letters to the queen

        Em*          D*         C
Hoping somebody will see what I mean

             G
The Queen of Hearts

             Am7
The Queen of Hearts

      G      Am7
The Queen of Hearts

         G                      Am7
I always heard about God with a wink and a nod

          D                     C
I guess I took it all too seriously

          G                    Am7
But I was five years old and I took what I was told

   Bm*           Am7*              C
To mean that the sublime was in my reach

         Em*           D*               C
That the ocean of the known ends at the beach

            G
Just up the street

      G                            Am7
These days people like that are considered aberrations

        D                     C
And I'm being corrected as we speak

           G                            Am7
This is my heart, it's a motor, it will search the world over

      Bm*            Am7*       C
I'm a search engine, see what I mean?

        Em*            D*                C
I don't need the Internet, I don't need TV

            G
To find the queen

             Am7
The Queen of Hearts

     G
The Queen

          G*                          Am7*
So if you ever find that church that fits in your purse

       D*                            C*
Put it into your cold metal shopping cart

            G                           Am7
And keep on wandering the aisles on the sick fluorescent tiles

         Bm*       Am7*     C
We'll be miles and miles apart

            Em*              D*               C
I've got my own search, I'm still just at the start

        Em*        D*               C
I'll be out on the highways looking for my counterpart

    G        Am7
The Queen of Hearts
