Strofa 1
Em D C
You got the lights on in the afternoon
Bm
And the nights are drawn out long
Em D
And you're kissing to
C
cut through the gloom
Bm
With a cough-drop-colored tongue
Em D
And you were sitting in the corner
C
with the coats all piled high
Bm
And I thought you might be mine
Em D
In a small world on an
C
exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
Bm
In the right place and time
Ritornello 1
Em
When the zeros line up on the
D
twenty-four-hour clock
C
When you know who's calling
Bm
even though the number is blocked
Em
When you walked around your house
D
wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C Bm
And your knee socks
Strofa 2
Em D C
Well you cured my January blues
Bm
Yeah, you made it all alright
Em D
I got a feeling
C
I might have lit the very fuse
Bm
That you were trying not to light
Em D
You were a stranger in my phone book
C
I was acting like I knew
Bm
'Cause I had nothing to lose
Em D
When the winter's in full swing
C
and your dreams just aren't coming true
Bm
Ain't it funny what you'll do?

Ponte 1
Am
The late afternoon
C
The ghost in your room
Em
that you always thought didn't approve
D
of you knocking boots
Am
Never stopped you letting me get hold
B7
of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
Em
Knee socks
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Em
Like the beginning of Mean Streets
You could Be My Baby (Be My Baby)

Knee socks
You got the lights on in the afternoon
And the nights are drawn out long
And you're kissin' to cut through the gloom
With a cough drop coloured tongue
And you were sittin' in the corner with the coats all piled high
And I thought you might be mine
In a small world, on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
In the right place and time
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks
Well, you cured my January blues
Yeah, you made it all alright
I've got a feelin' I might have lit the very fuse
That you were tryin' not to light
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was actin' like I knew
'Cause I had nothin' to lose
When the winter's in full swing and
Your dreams just aren't comin' true
Ain't it funny what you'll do?
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks
The late afternoon, the ghost in your room
That you always thought didn't approve
Of you knockin' boots
Never stopped you lettin' me get hold
Of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
Knee socks
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
You could be my baby
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
You could be my baby
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
You could be my baby
You and me could have been a team
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
You could be my baby
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
And your knee socks
Knee socks
