[Intro 1]
[D]
[G][D][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
I took [D]photos [G]along [D]the journey,
[G]a pho[D]to of a gir[G]l on [D]the bus[G],
[D]But [Em]the film wasn't [G]wound on,
the [A]camera was [G]broke so [D]all of the [G]pictures were [D]lost.
[G]There was[D] a photo

[Verse 2]
[G]of her fac[D]e,
[G]she loo[D]ked abo[G]ut 23,[D][G]
[Em]A photo of her [G]grey flannel [A]dress that
was [G]cut [D]just be[G]low her [D]knee.[G]

[Verse 3]
The [G]weight of the stars made
the night fall down,
Her [Bm]hair made the whole town [Em]swoon,
My heart was led by her pale skinny
legs to the [A]mattress in [G]her room.

[Verse 4]
No [G]matter what my friends say
there's no rhyme or reason,
I [Bm]know I did something wrong.
[Em]Oh she had the wit, she had the knack,
The [A]night didn't seem [G]too [D]long.[G]
[D][G][D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][D][Em]
[A][D][G][D]

[Verse 5]
The [D]freckles [G]upon [D]her back,
[G]the[D] grey hairs amo[G]ngst the[D] bla[G]ck,
The [Em]quiver in her [G]lips when
she [A]spoke far too [G]quick,
The [D]lines [G]upon her hand[D]s.[G]

[Verse 6]
The [G]weight of the stars made
the night fall down,
Her [Bm]hair made the whole town [Em]swoon,
My heart was led by her pale skinny
legs to [A]the mattress in [G]her room.

[Verse 7]
No [G]matter what my friends say
there's no rhyme or reason,
I [Bm]know I did something wrong.
[Em]Oh she had the wit,
she had the knack,
[A]The night didn't seem too [Am]long.
The [G]weight of the stars made
the night fall down,
Her [Bm]hair made the whole town [Em]swoon,
My heart was led by her pale skinny
legs to the [A]mattress in [G]her room.

[Verse 8]
No [G]matter what my friends say
there's no rhyme or reason,
I [Bm]know I did something wrong.
Oh [Em]she had the wit,
she had the knack,
[A]The night didn't seem [G]too long.
