Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][G][F][Em]
[Am][G][F][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]You got the ligh[G]ts on in the after[F]noon
And the [Em]nights are drawn out long
[Am]And you're kissi[G]ng to
cut through the [F]gloom
With a [Em]cough-drop-colored tongue
[Am]And you were sitti[G]ng in the corner
with the [F]coats all piled high
And I [Em]thought you might be mine
[Am]In a small[G] world on an
exceptionally [F]rainy Tuesday night
In [Em]the right place and time

[Chorus 1]
When the [Am]zeros line up on the
twenty-[G]four-hour clock
When you [F]know who's calling
even though the [Em]number is blocked
When you [Am]walked around your house
wearing my [G]sky blue Lacoste
And [F]your knee [Em]socks

[Verse 2]
[Am]Well you c[G]ured my January blue[F]s
Yeah, you [Em]made it all alright
[Am]I got a feeling[G]
I might have lit the very [F]fuse
That you were [Em]trying not to light
[Am]You were a stran[G]ger in my phone book
I was [F]acting like I knew
'Cause I [Em]had nothing to lose
[Am]When the winte[G]r's in full swing
and your dreams [F]just aren't coming true
Ain't it [Em]funny what you'll do?

[Chorus 2]
When the [Am]zeros line up on the
twenty-[G]four-hour clock
When you [F]know who's calling
even though the [Em]number is blocked
When you [Am]walked around your house
wearing my [G]sky blue Lacoste
And [F]your knee [Em]socks

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

[Chorus 3]
When the [Am]zeros line up on the
twenty-[G]four-hour clock
When you [F]know who's calling
even though the [Em]number is blocked
When you [Am]walked around your house
wearing my [G]sky blue Lacoste
And [F]your knee [Em]socks
When the [Am]zeros line up on the
twenty-[G]four-hour clock
When you [F]know who's calling
even though the [Em]number is blocked
When you [Am]walked around your house
wearing my [G]sky blue Lacoste
And [F]your knee [Em]socks

[Outro 1]
