A
You were breathing against my throat

Covering your laugh up with your long black overcoat

All circuits warming up

And you told me what you were going to do

      D
And I promised to do the same thing too

         A              E               D    A*
And the air, the air in New England was pure poison
[Verse 2]
A
The car was parked out back among the trees

Your voice was getting higher by slow degrees

You were giving me directions

And you told me where I came from

Well God bless us, every one
