Evelyn

C

[Verse]

F                       C
all the tables nice and clean
F           C
Evelyn's asleep
 F                 C
on the grave yard shift again
           G
selling gasoline
            F                     C
and there's kids smoking on south first
            F              Am        G
see high-school was just a blur, to her
  C                               G
and everything just found their place it seemed

[Pre-Chorus]

           Am         F            C         G
there's an old folk song on the radio
        Am      F        C          G
sounding thin and dark and haunted
       Am          F          C                     G
there's a bag of weed in the back beneath the books
         Am                F          C             G
and she can't stand the sight of this cul-de-sac
              Am        F         C             G
like an old crow, king of the lamp-post
   Am        F            C                      G
and this window hasn't been this clean since it last rained

[Verse]

F                              C
well she pictures up a different day
F                   C
driving west to east L.A
F                        C
and there ain't no sign of a dime, but hey
G                     (Start strumming)
anyone can dream     anyone can dream

[Chorus]

C                 F                   Am                    G
and all the college girls come in when the bars let out and they're hungry
C             F             Am                         G
making such a mess, Evelyn just talks trash, as she's sweeping up

[Post-chorus]

         Am          F           C          G
there's a thin dark cloud in the evening air
      Am    F    C      G
after every sunny day
    Am          F              C
there's a bum who lives in the parking lot
               G
wash the windows just to say hey.

         F                    C
