Verse 1:
                                                 C    G
There's a picture of Jesus lying in his mother's arms
                                                C   G
Shuttered windows, cars humming on the ??street ??below
                                                  C
The fountain throbbed ??in the lobby of the Grand Hotel
                            G                C G
We checked into room thirty-three, well well
                             C   G
You were a runaway flake of snow
                                                  C G
You were skinny and white as a wafer, yeah I know
                                                   C
Sitting on the edge of the bed clicking your shoes
                                G         C G
I slid my little songs out from under you


Chorus:
                         C      G
And we all rose from our wonder
                       C
We would never admit defeat
       G                        C
And we leaned out of the window
           G                   C              G C
As the rain fell on the street, on the street

G C G C G C G

Verse 2:
                                      C          G
They were just a sigh released from a dying star
                                         C    G
They were runaway flakes of snow, yeah I know
                                          C
They annexed your insides in a late night raid
                                             G
We sent down for drinks and something to eat
                                                 C G
The cars humming in the rain on the street below
                                              C   G
A fountain throbs in the lobby of the Grand Hotel
                                        C    G
The spurting font of creativity, yeah I know
                                               C
Your head in a pool of your own streaming hair
                                     G
And Jesus lying in his mother's arms
                        C       G
Just so up on the wall, just so


Chorus:
                            C      G
And we all rose up from our wonder
                       C
We would never admit defeat
       G                        C
And we leaned out of the window
                G                   C              G C
And watched the horses in the street, in the street
                      G     C G
In room thirty-three, yeah
             C G C
Yeah, I know
