[Verse 1]
       D#                       G#
My old lover calls early in the morning
Gm                           Cm
Looking for another place to hide
    G#                      Bb
Her new friends are already boring
       Gm                         Cm
She is sitting on the pavement outside
    Fm                              G#
She only comes to see me when she's had too much to drink
Gm                                Cm  D#       F7
Only says she loves me when she's too drunk to think


[Chorus]
G#                         Bb
Ain't it poetic, yeah, and ain't we grand?
  D#       D           G           Cm
I open the door with a drink in my hand
Cm      G#
Good to see you again
          Gm
Why can't we be friends?


[Verse 2]
  D#                              G#
I know she has some trouble being truthful
   Gm                              Cm
We keep the conversation light and easy
    G#                           Bb
She smiles when I tell she looks beautiful
    Gm                                Cm
She smiles but I can tell she doesn't believe me
       Fm                        G#
She is some kind of genius, everybody agrees
    Gm                D#               Cm    D#      F7
She looks towards the bedroom and then looks back to me


[Chorus]
G#                         Bb
Ain't it poetic, yeah, and ain't we grand?
  D#       D           G           Cm
I open the door with a drink in my hand
G#                     Gm        Bb
Tell me a story, go on sing me a song
        D#                     D            Cm
Give me something to dream to, after you've gone


[Post-Chorus]
      G#
Baby, can't you see?
           Gm          Gm Fm G# F7
You are no good for me
G# Bb Fm Bb
Ooooooooooh


[Outro]
    D#               Fm
Who knows what we'll be
        Gm            Cm     D# F7
When we wake from our dreams
        Fm            Bb
When we wake from our dreams
      D# G# Bb D#
We'll see
