verse 1

F Dm    C F    Dm          C
Fifteen keys, fifteen keys hang on a chain
  F Dm      C  F    Dm           C
The chain is joined, the chain is joined and forms a ring
  F Dm    C  F    Dm        C
The ring is in, the ring is in a woman's hand
   F Dm    C   F    Dm         C
She's walking on, she's walking on the dusty ground

     D          G
The dusty ground's a dead-end track
       A        Bm
The neighbors won't be coming back
    D      G
Fifteen gardens overgrown
    A       Bm
Fifteen houses falling down


verse 2
F Dm  C
F Dm  C
  F Dm    C  F    Dm            C
The woman's old, the woman's old and dressed in black
  F Dm      C  F     Dm          C
She keeps her hands, she keeps her hands behind her back
  F Dm   C  F  Dm           C
Imagine what, imagine what her eyes have seen
  F Dm    C  F    Dm         C
We ask but she, we ask but she won't let us in


     D       G
A key so simple and so small
      A         Bm
How can it mean no chance at all?
     D       G
A key, a promise, or a wish
      A         Bm
How can it mean such hopelessness?
