F     G     
  She looked me over 
And I guess she thought
      C  
I was all right 

F     G                     
  All right in a sort of a limited way 

       C   
For an off-night 

F          G             
  She said don't I know you 

                           C 
From the cinematographer's party? 

F        G 
  I said who am I 

                    C 
To blow against the wind? 

  F           G 
I know what I know 

                 C 
I'll sing what I said 

   F           G 
We come and we go 
That's a thing that I keep
       C   
In the back of my head

That really reminds me of money 

F             G                     
  She was the kind of a girl 
Who could say things that
             C   
Weren't that funny 

F        G             
  I said what does that mean

  She moved so easily 

                         C  
All I could think of was sunlight 

F        G
