Hankering Chords

(ver. 1)
Rufus Wainwright
[Verse]
A       Dm        A                 D
I got a hankering something's gonna happen
A                                E            E7
I may be wrong, but then again I may be right
      A         Dm          A           D         A
There must be a reason that I have been hanging 'round
                              E             E7
For so long in this goddamn café all night
 
[Chorus]
    A                    Dm
Oh, I've sat and flipped yesterday's news
A                         D                          A        E         E7
Refilled my cup of coffee over and over and over and over for you, dear
A                   Dm
I've let them play grunge all the day
A                                 D                          A
I reread 'zines, designed tattoos over and over and over and over
            E         E7 E    A
'Cause it's over. I belong to you
 
[Verse]
    D    A          D   A               D Dm A
Oh, I'll say café society ain't what it once was
   D A                  D    A                  D     Dm    A
If I see one more roach crossing, I'll call the whole thing off
E               E7          A             D       A
But I think I'll stay here, right by your entrée, dear
                             E          E7
Hopefully, hopefully, as the English do
 
(Plucked)
    A                Dm   A
But thank God I'm reading Proust
  D
Remembering
 
(Back to strumming)
A                                      E            E7
Things of the past. Or should I say le temps perdu?
 
[Chorus]
    A                    Dm
Oh, I've sat and flipped yesterday's news
A                         D
Refilled my cup of coffee over and over and over and
A                    Dm
I've let them play grunge all the day
A                                 D                        A
I reread 'zines, designed tattoos over and over and over and over
            E         E7 E
'Cause it's over. I belong to
 
(Single strum)
 
A
you
