Em A
she
loves to be one of the girls,

lives in the place in the side of our lives,
Em

where
nothing is ever put straight,
D C
She turns herself round and she
smiles and she says:
Em A
This is it and that‘s the end
of the joke.

And loses herself in her
dreaming and sleep
Em A
and
her lovers walk through in their coaches.

same.
