Verse 1:
Am                C
This dress that I made out of
    G                   D
the curtains was on the line, dancing
Am                 C

             G              D
can.  Now we walk up to the top of the street.

Some frogs are racing them, to catch up with me.

Gray buildings go by,
        G               D
violety sky lit up with trees in yellow.
