Surpassing strange, to see them on the train

I took a whiskey neat and walked out to the street
F#m          G   F#m          G
Where a wild man whistled and swayed

And up came a wind, from Paradise blowin' in

                         Bm
And she's lookin' like a wolf now
                            G
And the dreaming time ain't over

And the house is burning down
And the forest leans away
        A
I am an American, babe
                          Bm
And she's lookin' like an angel now
Standing on the roof
                   G
Saying something I can't make out

Oh and she's singin', she's singin'
