The Paper Chase

[D]You can't eras[A]e the Pa[G]per Chase     [D]
[G]She'll make you play i[D]t
In the br[G]ight merry morning  [A]
[D]She'll run and hide [A]
[G]And leave you the paper promi[D]ses
[Em]Behind her as she [D]runs across th[G]e square       [A]

[D]You can't win the race, S[A]he'll set[G] the pace       [D]
[G]You will hear her laughi[D]ng
Just be[G]hind the foolish fences  [A]
[D]Throw back the gate an[A]d find the  [G]
Piece of pape[D]r lying [Em]on the curbstone[D],
But the la[G]dy won't be there.   [A]

[G]Later in the day,[D]
[G]You'll be searching for a way     [C]
[F]To let her know you're ready     [D]
[G]For her little game to end     [C]
[F]Cause it's getting dark, and the[D]n-

[D]You'll see her face[A], a glim[G]pse of lace    [D]
[G]And you'll go runn[D]ing
Through the last [G]sweet dying daydream     [A]
[D]Calling her nam[A]e, but she'[G]s been home an hour,           [D]
[Em]Laughing at the mirror[D]
As she com[G]bs her paper hair.      [A]
