You'll hide among the covers

And wave as the aeroplanes go by

There's nothing to say

G F C

When you sleep all day, but "bye bye"

Your mind will find another

And that's where the days have gone

And all you can hear is a stereo somewhere

F C

Playing a pig of a song

And you'll know her

C#m Dm

Know her, when she comes

When you turn the light out

C#m Dm A G

Light out she'll come

C G#

C G#

She called you from across the city

You hired a car to crawl,

C G

But with the high rise still in your eyes

F C

You wonder who's out there at all.

And you'll know her

C#m Dm

Know her, when she comes

When you turn the light out

C#m Dm A G

Light out she'll come

Stop making me older, start making me new
