[Intro]
(Organ) (x4)
E D/F# A
[Verse]
E D/F# A
I know she's a tracker,
E D/F# A
any style that would back her
E E D/F# A
They say she's a chooser
E D/F#
but I just can't refuse her
A
She was just there, but then she can't be here no more
[Chorus]
E B D E
And as my mind unweaves
B D E
I feel the freeze down in my knees
B D E F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives
[Instrumental]
(Organ) (x2)
E D/F# A
[Verse]
E D/F# A
She's been down in the dunes
E D/F# A
and she's dealt with the goons
E E D/F# A
Now she drinks from a bitter cup,
E D/F#
I'm trying to get her to give it up
A
She was just here, I fear she can't be there no
more
[Chorus]
E B D E
And as my mind unweaves
B D E
I feel the freeze down in my knees
B D E F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives
[Bridge]
G#m
It's long, long when she's gone
C#m
I get weary holding on
A
Now I'm coldly fading fast
B7 E
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer
[Instrumental]
(Organ) (x4)
E D/F# A E
[Verse]
E D/F# A
"She's stoned" said the Swede,
E D/F# A
and the moon calf agreed
E E D/F# A
But like a viper in shock
E D/F#
With my eyes in the clock
A
She was just there somewhere and here I am again
[Chorus]
E B D E
And as my mind unweaves
B D E
I feel the freeze down in my knees
B D E F#7
But just before she leaves, she receives
[Outro]
(Organ) (x4)
E D/F# A
