A simple gesture yes or no
Would have been enough to let me know
Verse 2 (as Verse 1 pattern)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/buffalo_tom/velvet_roof_tab.html ]
Scraggly hair and messed up shoes
I'm looking all around for you
Find you in the corner bar
But you can't find the keys to your car
She's as sharp as a razor blade
But she could cut my wrists open just the same
