Biography:
Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey, January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His folk-pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, and are said to bridge the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger.

E F#m
If you could paint her, she'd be a Picasso.
A E B
She's got a few things out of place.
E F#m
Like when she smiles, it's slightly out of line.
A E B
It's half awkward, yet half grace.
A F#m
While you're unraveling this mystery
A E B
Of where she fits in time and space,
A Am
She'll drag you into this lover's tale,
Abm E
Though she will not give a reason.
A Am
And if you fight her tooth and nail,
Abm F#m
She won't give up until you lose
[Chorus]
E F#m
She wants the last word, the last dance.
A E B
She thinks it's absurd that you believe in second chances.
E F#m
You're a lost cause, yet here she is.
A B E
And that's the mystery. Here she is
[Verse]
E F#m
She's a poem by Ferlinghetti.
A E B
She's the angel in a nursery rhyme
E F#m
She'll set you a place at your table,
A E B
Then fill your cup till you're drunk on red wine.
A Am
She don't believe in stars or in miracles,
Abm E
But she reads your horoscope daily.
A Am
And if your response is too cynical,
Abm F#m (B?)
She'll say, "Who are you to know?"
[Chorus]
E F#m
She wants the last word, the last dance.
A E B
She thinks it's absurd that you believe in second chances.
E F#m
You're a lost cause, yet here she is.
A B E
And that's the mystery. Here she is
Here she is, here she is
Here she is...
[Bridge]
A Am
While you're unraveling this mystery
Abm E
Of where she fits in time and space,
A Am
She'll memorize your history
Abm F#m (B?)
And decorate your place.
[Chorus]
E F#m
She wants the last word, the last dance.
A E B
She thinks it's absurd that you believe in second chances.
E F#m
You're a lost cause, yet here she is.

And that's the mystery. Here she is

Here she is, here she is

Here she is...
