Intro: Am - Em - Am - Em 

Am                           Em
Hey man, do you wanna hear a story about me?
       Am                           Em
I'm an old man, you're probably not interested I see
         Am                         Em
But I'll tell you anyway, about the girl who came to stay
Am                                Em
Thirty years, six months, and two days ago


Am                             Em
She walked into the party with Joan de Monmarquis
    Am                                     Em
She wore her beauty like a cloak, with the devil up her sleeve
            Am                               Em
And she was ancient like the Greeks, amongst us animals and freaks
  Am                                      Em
I lost my mind, never to find the useless thing again


C         Em                 Am
There was something going on that night
C     Em                 Am
But I don't know what it was
C         Em              Am
There was something going on that night
G                                       C  Em
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it


Am - Em - Am - Em


  Am                              Em
I forgot everything I knew in the ancient sea that night
         Am                                  Em
When she slipped her dress off shivering and clung to me so tight
         Am                             Em
Then she whispered in my ear, "There is nowhere else but here",
Am       Em
Nowhere, nowhere


C         Em                 Am
There was something going on that night
C     Em                 Am
But I don't know what it was
C         Em              Am
There was something going on that night
G                                   
I was waiting, we were just waiting for


C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
            G
Until she's had her way with you


Am                                    Em
We spent three weeks in a cheap hotel corroding by the sea
Am                                Em
Tangled up in sheets and love and ancient misery
          Am                                Em
One day I woke to see her leave, she had an eagle on her sleeve
    Am                                      Em
The last I heard she took the bird to catch snakes in Mexico

C         Em                 Am
There was something going on that night
C     Em                 Am
But I don't know what it was
C         Em              Am
There was something going on that night
G                                       C  Em
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it


C         Em                 Am
There was something going on that night
C     Em                 Am
But I don't know what it was
C         Em              Am
There was something going on that night
G                                       C  Em
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it

C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
C         Em       Am
You don't know yourself
           G
Until your time was almost through


Am                           Em         
Hey man, do you wanna hear a story about me?
