The Rocking Chair

[A]Here [C#m]I wa[Ab]lk,[D/F#] here I w[E]alk

Lo[F#m]ooking for an angel's [E/G#]wings in the den of th[D/F#]e haw[E]k

[A]Here[C#m] I a[Ab]m, [D/F#]here I [E]am

With a c[F#m]hoice between an also [E/G#]ran and a sunbed[D/F#] tan [E]

And you tho[A]ught you'd found your own little[C#m] loo[Ab]k

Ho[B]w I misjuged, h[E]ow I mistook

And you tho[A]ught you'd found the style of your[C#m] hai[Ab]r

I [D/F#]guess tonight I'll t[E]ake, I'll [D/F#]take my troubles [E]to

The roc[A]king chair

[A]So I'll [B]take these high heeled[E] shoes[E7]

[A]And yes [B]I'll take these traditional[E] views[E7]

I'll [F#m]take this deep des[E]pair of a [A]30 year old [C#m]squa[Ab]re

To the ro[F#m]cking chair

[A]Here [C#m]I si[Ab]t, [D/F#]here I s[E]it

Lo[F#m]oking for a warming [E/G#]smile in a house of col[D/F#]d wit[E]

[A]Here I[C#m] sta[Ab]nd,[D/F#] here I st[E]and

[F#m]Torn between the balding [E/G#]drunk and no man's[D/F#] land[E]

And they'll t[A/F#]ell you when you've reached your[C#m] pea[Ab]k

Where the [B]wulf-whistle rung there's a [E]deafening shriek

Blo[A]wing kisses into th[C#m]e ai[Ab]r

I [D/F#]guess tonight I'll t[E]ake, I'll [D/F#]take these troubles [E]to

The roc[A]king chair

[A]So I'll [B]take these awkward[E] stanc[E7]e

[A]And I'll [B]take this sexless[E] dance[E7]

I'll [F#m]take this deep des[E]pair of a [A]30 year old [C#m]squa[Ab]re

To the r[F#m]ocking chair

[A]  [C#m] [Ab]  [D/F#]  [E]  [F#m]  [E/G#]  [D/F#]  [E]

[A]  [C#m] [Ab]  [D/F#]  [E]  [F#m]  [E/G#]  [D/F#]  [E]

Am I[A] skinny? A shade too[C#m] fat[Ab]?

Mmmm...[D/F#] My friend the cat knows a[E]ll about that

Am I[A] happy?

(Here I sit, here I sit)

Just a little[C#m] sad[Ab]

(Looking for a warming smile in the house of cold wit)

Mmmm...[D/F#] My friend the cat knows a[E]ll about that

Am I[A] skinny?

(Here I walk, here I walk)

A shade too[C#m] fat[Ab]?

(Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk)

[D/F#]My friend the cat knows a[E]ll about that
