[Verse 1]
C/F C C/B   Am7       C/G
         You   were a phonograph,
 C/F      C    C/B
I   was a kid I
   Am7        C/G             C/F      C C/B
sat   with an ear close, just listening
    Am7            C/G                C/F          C
Was there when the rain tapped her way   down your face
    C/B    Am7
You were a miracle,
C/G         C/F         C    C/B
I  was just holdin your space

[Verse 2]
Am7         Am7      C/G            C/F       C           C/B
   Well time   has a way of throwing   it all in your face
   Am7          C/G
The   past, she is haunted,
C/F           C    C/B
the future is laced
     Am7       C/G
Heartbreak, ya know,
            C/F
drives a big   black car
C       C/B    Am7
Swear I was in the back seat,
C/G        C/F     C  C/B Am7
   just minding my own

[Chorus]
G
Through the glass,
                             C
the corn crows come like rain
                G               Am7
They won't stay, they won't stay
    Em
For too long now
C                 G            Am7
 This could be all that we know
   D
Of love and all

[Verse 3]
        Am7       C/G         C/F      C      C/B
Well you   were a dancer and I   was a rag The
    Am7      C/G
song   in my head,
             C/F       C C/B
well was all that I had
Am7  C/G              C/F       C
Hope was a letter I never could send
     C/B  Am7        C/G        C/F   C   C/B Am7 C/G C/F C C/B
Well love was a country we couldn't defend

[Chorus]
G                F                   C               G
Through the carnival we watch them go round and round
               F               C               G
All we knew of home was just a sunset and some clowns

[Verse 4]
        Am7       C/G
Well you   were a magazine,
 C/F      C         C/B
I   was a plane jane
     Am7         C/G             C/F      C   C/B
Just walking the sidewalks all covered in rain
    Am7        C/G          C/F        C    C/B
Love   to just get into some   of your stories
    Am7       C/G           C/F C C/B
Me, all of my plane jane glory
Am7 C/G C/F
