[Intro]
A E F#m E x2
[Verse]
A E F#m E
Last night, late, I was watching it snow
A E F#m E
It always goes sideways in the city
A E F#m E
It comes right out from the street lights, you know
A E F#m
Pumped out by an engine deep inside the earth's core
E A
It goes sideways in the city
[Instrumental]
E F#m E
A E F#m E
[Verse]
A E F#m E
Cover the shapes and erase the date
A E F#m E
This could be any evening in any place
A E F#m
The blizzard blows from left to right
E A E D
Which is funny 'cause the piano's playing "Summertime", from 1935
Bm A D
So sounds the alarm of ragtime
E A
It's ragtime keeping time
[Instrumental]
E F#m E
A E F#m E
[Verse]
A E F#m
Brave to the waves of its residue
E A
Its laughter from a marbled room
E F#m
The white-crowned sounds of possible
E A
The sound that lures me
E F#m
It says, "Don't you hurry
E A
Don't you worry, kid, we'll be seeing you
E F#m
We'll see you when you're ready."
[Chorus]
D Bm D Bm
[Verse]
A E F#m E x2
A E F#m
Ragtime turning out the sun and moon
E A
Its gravity is soothing
E F#m
It winds me in a sleep cocoon
E A
I'll reveal myself when I'm ready
E F#m E D
I'll reveal myself invincible soon
[Chorus]
