From 1993's "The Red Shoes"


AbAb   C#/F   F#F#   C#/F


AbAb          C#/F
  Some moments that I've had

F#F#      C#/F
  Some moments of pleasure


AbAb   C#/F   F#F#   C#/F

AbAb         C#/F
  I think about us lying

F#F#       AbAb
Lying on a beach somewhere

        C#add9C#add9
I think about us diving

F#F#       C#/F      AbAb
Diving off a rock, into another moment

C#/Ab   F#F#   C#/F


AbAb       C#/F     F#F#
  The case of George the Wipe

  C#/F          AbAb
Oh God I can't stop laughing

       C#/F     F#F#
This sense of humour of mine

C#/F          AbAb   C#/F
It isn't funny at all

     F#F#
Oh but we sit up all night

C#/F       Absus4Absus4
Talking about it

AbAb        FbFb
  Just being alive

F#F#       Absus4Absus4  AbAb
  It can really hurt

       FbFb
These moments given

F#F#         AbAb   C#/F   F#F#   C#/F
  Are a gift from time


AbAb        C#/Ab
  On a balcony in New York

F#/Ab      C#/Ab
   It's just started to snow

AbAb          C#/Ab
 He meets us at the lift

   F# minorF#m
Like Douglas Fairbanks

C#/F        AbAb
  Waving his walking stick

C#/F           F#F#   C#C#
  But he isn't well at all

  F#F#    C#/F
The buildings of New York

Ab7sus4Ab7sus4      C#/F         F#F#
   Look just like mountains through the snow


N.C.       FbFb
   Just being alive

F#F#       Absus4Absus4  AbAb
  It can really hurt

        FbFb
These moments given

F#F#        AbAb
  Are a gift from time

N.C.       C#/F
  Just let us try

F#F#            AbAb
  To give these moments back

       FbFb
To those we love

F#F#          AbAb   C#/Ab   F#/Ab   C#/F
To those who will survive


AbAb         C#/F
  And I can hear my mother saying

F#F#  C#/F      AbAb         C#/F
   "Every old sock meets an old shoe"

F#F#              C#/F   AbAb   C#/F   F#F#
  Ain't that a great saying?

 C#/F      AbAb         C#/F
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"

F#F#        C#/F
  Here come the Hills of Time


AbAb   C#/F   F#F#   C#/F   AbAb


C#/F          F#F#   C#/F   AbAb   C#/F   F#F#
  Hey there Maureen,

C#/F         AbAb
   Hey there Bubba,

C#/F            F#F#
Dancing down the aisle of a plane,


C#/F   AbAb   C#/F


F#F#      C#/F
  'S Murph, playing his guitar refrain,


AbAb   C#/F   F#F#   C#/F   AbAb


C#/F        F#F#
  Hey there Teddy,

C#/F              AbAb
Spinning in the chair at Abbey Road,


C#/F   F#F#   C#/F   AbAb


C#/F       F#F#
