LA
 I thought I saw you in the Battleship
RE                 
SIm        
LA
 But it was only a look alike

She was nothing but a vision trick
RE         
SIm
 Under the warning light
        
FA#m
She was close
LA                      
FA#m
Close enough to be your ghost
       
LA
But my chances turned to toast
       
RE             
SIm                 
LA   
FA#m
When I asked her if I could call her your name

LA    
FA#m

LA
 I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
RE               
SIm
 Huddled up in wicker chair
LA
 I wandered up for a closer look
RE                        
SIm
 And kissed whoever was sitting there
        
FA#m
She was close
        
LA               
FA#m    
And she held me very tightly
             
LA
'Til I asked awfully politely
 
RE          
SIm           
LA     
FA#m
"Please, can I call you her name?"

LA    
FA#m  
MI

    
RE                   
SIm 
And I elongated my lift home
FA#m                                  
RE
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
  
SIm                         
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    
MI                     
LA    
RE7+   
MI
And kept my shortcuts to myself

LA
 I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak
RE                
SIm        
LA
 Messin' with the smoke alarm

It was too loud for me to hear her speak
RE                
SIm
 And she had a broken arm
       
FA#m
It was close
LA                           
FA#m
So close that the walls were wet
        
LA                   
RE
And she wrote it out in Letraset
         
SIm              
DO#m      
LA
"No, you can't call me her name"
                      
DO#m          
LA
Tell me, where's your hiding place?
                    
DO#m        
I'm worried I'll forget your face

    
FA#m
And I've asked everyone
    
SIm                     
MI
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along
  
RE                 
SIm
I elongated my lift home
FA#m                              
RE
Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round
  
SIm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    
REm                        
And kept my shortcuts to myself

LA      
RE7+

FA#m

RE      
MI

LA
 I saw your sister in the Cornerstone
RE7+                 
SIm       
LA
 On the phone to the middle man

When I saw that she was on her own
RE7+                   
SIm
 I thought she might understand
             
FA#m
That she was close
          
LA                   
FA#m
Well, you couldn't get much closer
               
LA                          
RE
She said, "I'm really not supposed to, but yes
                
SIm          
LA
You can call me anything you want"
