Ohio chords by CocoRosie

F                    C
Out from my window across from the city
  G                        Am
I have what's considered a good view
    F                        C
Two blocks from the subway, three from the fountain
        G                Am
Where I walk to break in new shoes

     F                           C
She stands on the sidewalk just waving at taxis
      G                    Am
Like horses in parades in fancies
  F                           C
I ask where she's headed she tells me,
           G                     Am
Ohio, I've not seen my mother in ages
F                 C  G             Am
It's been a long time, a real long time
F                 C  G             Am
It's been a long time, a real long time

F                      C
Out from my window How far is Ohio?
    G                       Am
She laughed and pointed out east
    F                    C
She said I grew up there with my dear mother
      G                          Am
And I haven't seen her since thirteen

    F                 C
You see, I was taken while she lay sleeping
       G             Am
By my father's hired men
   F                 C
We moved to city so far from my family
  G                        Am
I haven't been back there since
F                C    G            Am
It's been a long time, a real long time
F                C    G            Am
It's been a long time, a real long time

F                         C
Out from my window please hear me Ohio
     G                      Am
Your daughter wants to come home
    F                       C
She longs to be with you to hug you to kiss you
   G               Am
To never leave her alone

         F                  C
And I've gotten know her to live with to love her
     G               Am
It's hard to see her leave
      F                            C
She belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
  G                    Am
I wish she belonged to me
F                C   G             Am
It's been a long time, a real long time
F           C   G             Am
See you sometime, see you sometime   (8X)
