The Waterboys – The Girl In The Window Chair (Guitar)

Dm

[Verse 1]

                      Dm
She knew she'd had a close escape

                   Gm
When she heard his voice on tape

                 C
That the man who wrote those words

             A7
Could never comfort her

         Dm
And she thought

            Gm7
Of all the things that would go wrong

                  C
If they'd carried on

           A                                    Dm
And what a fool she'd been to think that they belonged

                     Gm
When she heard those songs

Gm             C
Those dolorous songs

       Bbm                                        A    A  Asus4 A+5
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs

                         Dm      D5       Dm
She sat down at a window chair

                               Gm   Gm7  Gm6
She brushed and ponytailed her hair

                   C5      C7     C
And thought about his changing moods

                   A
All that anger and such victimhood

             Dm      D5       Dm
And she imagined

                               Gm   Gm7  Gm6
The hour he knew that love was gone

                   C5      C7     C
That bitter dawn

                  A                               Dm
When he reached for a pen and turned his bedlight on

                  Gm7
And wrote those songs

                C
Those dolorous songs

      A                                           Dm      D5       Dm
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs

      Gm   Gm7  Gm6
Those songs

               C5      C7     C
Those dolorous songs

      Bbm                                          F
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs

      Bbm              F
Those songs... those songs

      Bbm              F
Those songs... those songs
