VERSE 1
 
So  
Bbmaj7/F 
who will make a  
Abmaj9/A# 
first 
 
move
 
To  
Bbmaj7/F 
start the bedsheet  
Abmaj9/A# 
code?
 
On  
Bbmaj7/F 
her couch, she in her  
Abmaj9/A# 
bathrobe
 
Two  
Cm7 
watch the TV  
F11/A# 
snow
 
He’s  
C#6 
come here on  
C#mmaj7 
leave
 
To  
C#6 
borrow some  
C#mmaj7 
speed
 
From his  
Dm7 
deathwatch across town
 
Now  
C#6 
stuck for a  
C#mmaj7 
word
C#6 
Flattered, 
 
dis
C#mmaj7 
turbed
 
Says “My  
Dm7 
time it is free and
Gm7 
Worthless am I
VERSE 2
Bbmaj7/F 
African son smeared in  
Abmaj9/A# 
whiteface
Bbmaj7/F 
White gown, size ten  
Abmaj9/A# 
pumps
Bbmaj7/F 
Postures in the bay  
Abmaj9/A# 
window
 
Says  
Cm7 
“Going walking, it’s been  
F11/A# 
months”
 
C#6 
Watching you  
C#mmaj7 
die
 
In  
C#6 
jail or else  
C#mmaj7 
high
 
A  
Dm7 
wasted, slow goodbye
 
As your  
C#6 
knife-blows rain  
C#mmaj7 
down
 
And the  
C#6 
floorboards blush  
C#mmaj7 
brown
 
My  
Dm7 
time it is free and
Gm7 
Worthless am I
