The Girl In The Window Chair

Biography:

The Waterboys is a British celtic band formed in 1983 by Scottish musician Mike Scott.

[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm
She knew she'd had a close escape
Gm
When she heard his voice on tape
C
That the man who wrote those words
A7
Could never comfort her
Dm
And she thought
Gm7
Of all the things that would go wrong
C
If they'd carried on
A Dm
And what a fool she'd been to think that they belonged
Gm
When she heard those songs
Gm C
Those dolorous songs
Bbm A A Asus4 A+5
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs

[Verse 2]
Dm D5 Dm
She sat down at a window chair
Gm Gm7 Gm6
She brushed and ponytailed her hair
C5 C7 C
And thought about his changing moods
A
All that anger and such victimhood
Dm D5 Dm
And she imagined
Gm Gm7 Gm6
The hour he knew that love was gone
C5 C7 C
That bitter dawn
A Dm
When he reached for a pen and turned his bedlight on

[Verse 3]
Gm7
And wrote those songs
C
Those dolorous songs
A Dm D5 Dm
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs
Gm Gm7 Gm6
Those songs
C5 C7 C
Those dolorous songs
Bbm F
Those heart-scorned, prim, self-pitying, dolorous songs
Bbm F
Those songs... those songs
Bbm F
Those songs... those songs
