Unsentimental, traveling around
A7          D    A7        D
Sure of myself, sure of it now
A7                    D
But you were standing there so close to me
A7                    D
Like the future was supposed to be
A7                    D
In the aisles of the grocery
A7                    D
And the blocks uptown

[Verse 2]
A7      D   A7          D
I remember, remember it well
A7         D          A7          D
But if I'd forgotten, could you tell?
A7                    D
In the shadow of your first attack
A7                    D
I was questioning and looking back
A7                    D
You said, "Baby, we don't speak of that"
A7                    D
Like a real aristocrat

[Verse 3]
A7          D         A7       D
Compound to compound, lazy and safe
A7          D         A7       D
Wanted to leave it, wanted to wait
A7                     D
When the taxi door was open wide
A7                     D
I pretended I was horrified
A7                     D
By the uniform and gloves outside
A7                     D
Of the courtyard gate

A7           D           G          D
You're not a victim, but neither am I
A7           D           G          D
Nostalgic for garbage, desperate for time
A7                      D
I could blame it on your mother's hair
A7                      D
Or the colors that your father wears
A7                      D
But I know that I was never fair
A7                      D
You were always fine
