[Intro]
D
(with Riff 1 x2)
[Verse 1]
G Bm
Reading the draft, wasn't sure where to laugh
Em C
The language wasn't very refined
G Bm
Skipping ahead, she wasn't sure where it led
Em C
The patterns were too hard to find
[Bridge]
Am B7
Traffic and lights, connecting flights
Em C
She read it through
G Bm Em C
The church rang a bell, heard it from the hotel
G Bm Em C
She stood up to open the blinds
[Interlude]
D (with Riff 1)
[Verse 2]
G Bm
Old magazine became part of her scene
Em C
She put up with what she put down
G Bm
Laying in bed now off the top of her hed
Em C
Knowing she could take him to town
[Bridge]
Am B7
Traffic and lights, setting her sights
Em C
She always knew
G Bm Em C
Some aim to be great but they're just still as straight
G Bm Em C
That history's often unkind
[Interlude]
D (with Riff 1)
[Bridge]
C Em Bm G
Writing her thoughts as she stares out to the highway
C Em Bm G
Will anyone read or review?
C Em Bm G
Cool ocean air as she pulls into the driveway
C Em Bm G
The ceiling is cracked, but she's leaning out the window
Bm
Out of the window
Em
Out of the window
C
Out of the window
[Bridge]
Am B7
Traffic and lights, connecting flights
Em C
She thought it through
G Bm Em C
Make no mistake, she'll never let them eat cake
G Bm Em C
Cause history's often unkind
G Bm Em C
Still the church rang a bell, echoed through the hotel
G Bm Em C
The key is often harder to find
[Interlude]
D (with Riff 1)
[Outro]

G C G
Reading the draft
Wasn't sure where to laugh
The language wasn't very refined
Skipping ahead
She wasn't sure where it lead
The patterns were too hard to find
Traffic and lights
Connecting flights
She read it through
The church rang the bell
Heard it from her hotel
She stood up open the blinds
A rolled magazine
Became part of her scene
She put up with what she put down
Laying in bed
Now off the top of her head
Knowing she could take 'em to town
Traffic and lights
Setting her sights
She always knew
Some aim to be great
But they just illustrate
That history's often unkind
Writing her thoughts
As she stares out to the highway
Will anyone read or review?
Cool ocean air
As she pulls in to the driveway
The ceiling is cracked
But she's leaning out the window
Out of the window
Out of the window
Out of the window
Traffic and lights
Connecting flights
She thought it through
Make no mistake
She'll never let them eat cake
Because history's often unkind
Still the church rang the bell
Echoed through the hotel
The key is often harder to find
