Em D C
You got the lights on in the afternoon
B7 Em
And the nights are drawn out long
D C
And you' re kissing to cut through the gloom
B7 Em
With a cough drop coloured tongue
D C
You were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
B7 Em
And I thought you might be mine
D C
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
B7
In the right place and time
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock
C B7
When you know who' s calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B7
And your knee socks
Em D C
Well, you cured my January blues,
B7 Em
yeah, you made it all alright
D C
I got a feeling I might' ve lit the very fuse
B7 Em
that you were trying not to light
D C
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
B7 Em
Cause I had nothing to lose
D C
When the winter' s in full swing and your dreams just aren' t coming true
B7
Ain' t it funny what you' ll do?
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock
C B7
When you know who' s calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B7
And your knee socks
Am C
In late afternoon, the ghost in your room
Em D
That you always thought didn' t approve of you knocking boots
C B7
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot
Em
By the scruff of your knee socks
Em
You and me could' ve been a team
Each had a half of a king-and-queen seat
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock
C B7
When you know who' s calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B7
And your knee socks
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twenty four hour clock
C B7
When you know who' s calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B7
And your knee socks
