Intro: A#

Verse:
A#
I thought I saw you in the battleship
D#                    Cm
but it was only a look-a-like
A#
She was nothing but a vision trick
D#              Cm
Under the warning light
Gm                 A#                     Gm
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
A#
But my chances turned to toast
D#                              Cm           A# Gm A# Gm
When i asked her if i could call her your name

A#
I thought I saw you in the rusty hook
D#                    Cm
Huddled up in a wicker chair
A#
I wandered over for a closer look
D#              Cm
And kissed who ever was sitting there
Gm                 A#                     Gm
She was close, and she held me very tightly
A#
ʼTil I asked awfully politely, please
D#                       Cm A# Gm A# Gm
Can I call you her name.

Chorus:
D#                          Cm
And I elongated my lift home,
Gm                                  D#
Yeah, I let him go the long way ʼround
Cm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
F7
And kept my shortcuts to myself

A# D# F7

Verse:
A#
I thought I saw you in the parrots beak,
D#                        Cm
Messing with the smoke alarm,
A#
It was too loud for me to hear her speak,
D#                     Cm
And she had a broken arm,
Gm                 A#                      Gm
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
A#
And she wrote it out in letra-set
D#           Cm                Dm
No, you canʼt call me her name

Bridge:
A#                               Dm
Tell me whereʼs your hiding place
A#                     Dm
Iʼm worried Iʼll forget your face
Gm
And Iʼve asked everyone
Cm                                 F7
Iʼm beginning to think I imagined you all along

Chorus:
D#                         Cm Cm
And I elongated my lift home,
Gm                               D# D#
Yeah, I let him go the long way ʼround
Cm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
D#m
And kept my shortcuts to myself

A# D# Cm x2
Gm Cm D# F7

Verse:
A#
I saw your sister in the cornerstone
D#                             Cm
On the phone to the middle man
A#
When I saw that she was on her own
D#                             Cm
I thought she might understand
Gm                              A#
She was close, well you couldnʼt get much closer
Gm             A#                          D#
She said iʼm really not supposed to but yes,
                              Cm  A#
You can call me anything you want
