Intro
| E | x2


Verse 1
A
I saw you in the film for just two seconds
F#m
a documentary set in heaven
          Bm
where the hypsters roll like children
        E
and the writers roll like dogs


Verse 2
A
on rugs in beds and on stages
     F#m
and the singers hide behind the camera
  Bm
I saw you in the film
          E
where the children write on glass

Chorus
A
the sun came in like a pack of orange Spaniards
           C#m
through the window
         Bm
over the ledge under the curtain
         E
on their bellies creeping an' bending


Verse 3
A
balls of string coiled like springs
F#m
hang down from the symbol stands
E
and in your hands I sleep just like a drummer
                     D (let ring)           E (let ring)         ...A
and wake up with the thunder... of your typewriter... every night

| E | x2


Verse 4
A
well everyday a prayer goes on its knees
      F#m
I will quit the whites, the wine and the weed
Bm
falls to its belly
    E
and crawls towards New York


Verse 5
A
I saw you in the film for just two seconds
     F#m
on a subway car drifting like a question
Bm
from earth to the street to the bridge in the east
        E
where the green man wears a hat


Chorus
A
the sun came in like a pack of orange Spaniards
          C#m
through the window
         Bm
over the ledge under the curtain
         E
on their bellies creeping an' bending


A
balls of string coiled like springs
F#m
hang down from the symbol stands
E
and in your hands i sleep just like a drummer


(start muting and strum gently)
                     A
and wake up with the thunder
(just like a drummer)

of your typewriter
(wake up with the thunder)
             Bm
just like a drummer
(of your typewriter)
                   E
i wake up with the thunder
(just like a drummer)
            A [start "unmuting" and strum harder and harder]
of your typewriter
(wake up with the thunder)
