VERSE 1:
D                                       G
You were standing on the corner when it all came crashing down
D                                             G
On your black shoes and your black dress, you pulled your black hat round
D                                      G
I suppose you should feel sorry, but I see you dressed in silk
D                                G
With a double cappucino and it's topped with dry steamed milk
D                                G           A
You know I guess you should feel sorry after all
A
But I'm not crying anymore

D  G  A

CHORUS:
G                D              A
Yeah, and do you forget who you are
G               D               A
When you're the last one at the bar
        D/C#      Bm  
And the morning unfurls
G                                D      G        A              
On the wallflower.....wallflower girl.....on the wallflower girl


VERSE 2:
D                                           G
Well you're in and out and nothing down and halfway in between
D                                G
You're Holly GoLightly, yeah I'd heard you played that scene
D                                           G
Well, you say that you're an actress, and a painter on the side.
D                                             G
And you used to read the Tarot cards, but you don't like what you'd find.
D                                 G             A
Well, I suppose we both know your future in a way
               D   G   A
Hey, hey hey...


(CHORUS)


BRIDGE:
G                         A
When you're climbing up a mountainside
D          D/C#              Bm  
Well, they say it hurts your ears when they pop
G                        A                       D 
But that's the price you pay, now, for being on top.

D  G A D  G A

VERSE 3:
D                                        G
Now the light is turning greener than my thoughts are ringing true
D                                           G
And the reason that I'm so hard, girl, is I see myself in you.
D                                         G
And the mountain tops and valleys and the vantage points between
D                                               G
Well, you used to read the Tarot cards, but you don't like what you've seen
D                              G           A
No, I suppose we both know our future in a way.....hey, hey, hey...

D   G A
