Verse:
Am Em
She lives in the TV sky
E Am
She lives in such pain
G Dm
She rides in a bullet proof
F
Stretch limosine
The smoke in the bar room nights
The faces in the window
The sound of the harbor horn
She recognized
Chorus:
Csus4
And when the music started
Gsus4
She just slipped away
Csus4 Gsus4
Just like a river fallin down
Csus4
And when the music started
Gsus4
She just slipped away
Dsus4
She just slipped away
High on a windy hill
The turbine did whine
Low in the valley chill
A baby is cryin
Impossible to take the time
The moment is near
Cry out from behind the pines
A voice coming near
Post Chorus:
