  			INTRO  A G D D 

VERSE 
A             G        D 
Johanna drove slowly into the city  
A             G        D 
The Hudson River all filled with snow  
A             G        D 
She spied the ring on His Honor's finger  
A6  A Asus4 
Oh-oh-oh  
A6  A Asus4 

A             G        D 
A thousand years in one piece of silver  
A             G        D 
She took it from his lily-white hand  
A             G        D 
Showed no fear - she'd seen the thing 
A6  A Asus4  
In the Young Men's Wing at Sloan-Kettering  
A6  A Asus4 



D                                        G      D 
(I usually hum the lead here, listen to the song and try it if you want) 
D                                        G      D 
Look outside at the raincoats coming, say OH 

VERSE 
A             G        D 
His Honor drove southward seeking exotica  
A             G        D 
Down to the Pueblo huts of New Mexico  
A             G        D 
Cut his teeth on turquoise harmonicas  
A6  A Asus4 
Oh-oh-oh  
A6  A Asus4 

A             G        D 
I saw Johanna down in the subway 
A             G        D  
She took an apartment in Washington Heights  
A             G        D 
Half of the ring lies here with me  
A6  A Asus4 
But the other half's at the bottom of the sea  
A6  A Asus4
