verse 1 
        A                     E 
All the young girls look like ravens 
        A                E 
As they flock around the pool 
         A 
And they peck at their reflection 
       E                C#m 
In the shadows of men's drool 

verse 2 
        A                 E 
I could look out there forever 
   A           E 
Forever has no holes 
            A 
Through the windows of eternity 
        E                   C#m 
You can glimpse the passing souls 


             B 
This party's over 
              A 
The bells are ringing themselves 
          B 
I'm going home 

verse 3 
        A               E 
She was standing on the table 
       A              E 
With a message on her skin 
A 
I'm a look right in her eyes 
    E               C#m 
But I could not see in 

verse 4 
       A                E 
I have loved you from a distance 
A                 E 
Loved you from up close 
         A 
Like the tiny frog that breathes 
      E              C#m 
I can nestle in your cloak 


             B 
This party's over 
              A 
The bells are ringing themselves 
          B 
I'm going home 

Verse 5 
      A           E 
I was always in a hurry 
      A               E 
But I never knew what for 
A 
Paranoia chased me out 
         E                    C#m 
And then time just closed the door 

 
             B 
This party's over 
              A 
The bells are ringing themselves 
          B 
I'm going home
