    D#
A lack of understanding
    Fm
You took for being lazy
  Gm
I was just being lazy
    A#
I'm even doing it now

Chorus:
                      G#
I know that you have saved me
                      D#    G# D# G#
I love that you have saved me

Save your pennies careful
Let both blue eyes be watchful
It's best to forget freedom
It's best to be enslaved

Chorus:
It's better still to love first
It's harder still to love first

D#                           A#m
You're my winter queen that disappeared
Your hands grew cold
    G#                  D#
You ran a mile from my ways
                        A#m
Last I heard you had a four-floor
view with lots of time
    G#                     Cm
And notebook full of the finest,
creamy, rich girl parchment pages
                             F
Slowly filled with all your passing days
             G#             D# G#  D# G#
Every sacred word paints a picture

Bigger were his muscles
And farther go his dollars
But when you are in trouble
And when you are uptight

Chorus:
I get the midnight phone call
I'm your captain for the long haul

If someone else is near me
You scuttle up the pavement
It's no one that I care for
I pause for an effect

You calculating bimbo
I wish you'd let the past go
