Ankle Tattoo Chords

(ver. 1)
David Francey
INTRO: C  G  D  G  C  G  D  G

      C          G             D        G
I was at the bus station, that terminal place
         C           G                 D           G
With the rest of the desperate, who've fallen from grace
      C         G             D          G
Where eyes are averted, where other eyes stare
    C          G         D        G
Man talking to somebody, nobody's there


        C        G                D        G
And the terminal cases, they're impossibly young
       C          G         D             G
And an old man is asking if I've seen his son
        C         G                     D         G
And the cops do a walk through, bottles slip into bags
        C          G               D          G
And the beggar boy standing there, hanging in rags


CHORUS:
D
Nothing much changes
         C          G
Just the passing of time
        C          G
And the faces that wait here
       D          G
At the end of the line


CHORUS:
D
Nothing much changes
         C          G
Just the passing of time
        C          G
And the faces that wait here
       D          G
At the end of the line


BRIDGE:
        D                            C           G
And the eyes, they get raised to the blue of the screen
       D                   C         G
To the coming and going of men and machines
      D                         C          G
And I think, very likely, the departure of dreams
      C                     G
The arrival of the midnight hour


INSTRUMENTAL: C ~ ~ G  C ~ ~ G   C  G  D  G   C  G  D  G   C  G  D  G


BRIDGE:
        D                            C           G
And the eyes, they get raised to the blue of the screen
       D                   C         G
To the coming and going of men and machines
      D                         C          G
And I think, very likely, the departure of dreams
      C                     G
The arrival of the midnight hour 


          C             G                    D        G
There's a girl with her legs crossed, got an ankle tattoo
        C      G         D              G
It's an ugly reminder in four shades of blue
        C             G                  D        G
And the bad boys, the rude boys, they're into the game
         C               G            D            G
And they keep their eyes open for the halt and the lame


CHORUS:
    D
And nothing much changes
         C          G
Just the passing of time
        C          G
And the faces that wait here
       D          G
At the end of the line


CHORUS:
D
Nothing much changes
         C          G
Just the passing of time
        C          G
And the faces that wait here
       D          G
At the end of the line


OUTRO: C  G  D  G   C  G  D  G
