     Em             Em/Gb Em  
Well I'll be damned

                C
Here comes your ghost again

                 G
But that's not unusual

                   D
It's just that the moon is full

                    Em  Em/Gb Em  
And you happened to call

    Em         Em/Gb Em  
And here I sit

            C
Hand on the telephone

          G
Hearing a voice I'd known

            D
A couple of light years ago

                       Em   Em  Em/Gb Em  2x 
Heading straight for a fall

   Em                   Em  Em/Gb Em  
As I remember your eyes

                C
Were bluer than robin's eggs

              G
My poetry was lousy you said

              D
Where are you calling from?

               Em     Em  Em/Gb Em  2x
A booth in the Midwest

Em           Em  Em/Gb Em  
Ten years ago

                  C
I bought you some cufflinks

               G
You brought me something

                  D
We both know what memories can bring

                        Em  Em  Em/Gb Em  2x
They bring diamonds and rust

Well you burst on the scene Already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The Madonna was yours for free Yes the girl on the half-shell Would keep you unharmed

    Bm
Now I see you standing

With brown leaves falling around

                 Am
And snow in your hair

    Bm
Now you're smiling out the window

Of that crummy hotel

                Am
Over Washington Square

    C
Our breath comes out white clouds

                         G
Mingles and hangs in the air

         Fmaj7
Speaking strictly for me

                                 G   B7
We both could have died then and there

Now you're telling me You're not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You who are so good with words And at keeping things vague Because I need some of that vagueness now It's all come back too clearly Yes I loved you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust I've already paid Em Em/Gb Em 4x * To form Em/Gb: form Em then add high E string, same fret Set8 http://sites.google.com/site/guitarmusicchordsandlyrics/
