Am7                       Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
Check out the girl in the harbor tunnel

Am7               Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
Crawling to work, six feet under

        C                G
And the day has barely begun

C                   G       D
They're all chewing gum and laughing

       Am7                   Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
At the voice of the cracklin radio station

Am7           Dsus4  D  Dsus2  D
Lead us not into Penn Station

          C                 G
Cause the best parts just begun

      C            G     D
We're all becoming one, again
[Chorus]
Am7                    Em7                       Em
  And she's making the scene with her coffee and cream

               Cmaj7
And the copy machines not working

Am7                 Em7                      Em
  She's a hell of a girl, she's alone in the world

                      Cmaj7
And she likes to say `Hey good lookin'

      Am7    D
She's on her way

      Am7      D
She's taking a sick day

Bb       C
  Sooon...
[Break] Am7 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D [Verse 2]
Am7                         Dsus4  D  Dsus2 D
And here is the man pushing paper past her

Am7                        Dsus4  D  Dsus2 D
Thinks of ways to make the day go faster

        C               G
But the day goes on and on

C                G        D
He dreams of his lawn and all about

Am7                      Dsus4  D  Dsus2 D
The pretty careerist the next cube over

Am7                   Dsus4  D  Dsus2 D
The fat secretary the lunch-time lover

         C                  G
Till the Path train finally comes

    C                 G     D
The platforms full of bums again
[Chorus]
Am7                    Em7                       Em
  And she's making the scene with her coffee and cream

               Cmaj7
And the copy machines not working

Am7                 Em7                      Em
  She's a hell of a girl, she's alone in the world

                      Cmaj7
And she likes to say `Hey good lookin'

      Am7    D
She's on her way

      Am7      D
She's taking a sick day

Bb       C
  Sooon...
[Break] Am7 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D [3x] C G C G D [Chorus]
Am7                    Em7                      Em
  And she's taking her time, as she's tossing a dime

                  Cmaj7
At the man in the cardboard coffin

Am7                  Em7                      Em
  Doesn't have to be fine, she's ahead of the line

                   Cmaj7
Doesn't have to be here too often

      Am7      D
She's making a play

      Am7      D
She's taking a sick day

Bb       C       G
  Sooon...
[Outro] Am7 Dsus4 D Dsus2 D [fade]
