Intro: C

C
Well I used to know someone fair
C
She had orange ribbons in her hair
        F
She was such a trip

She was hardly there
      C
But I loved her

Just the same.


C
There was rain in our window,
C
The FM set was ragged
    F
But she could talk, yeah,

We learned to speak
C
And one year has gone by

C
Such a long long road to seek it
C
All we did was break and freak it
       F
We had all that lovers ever had
C
We just blew it and I'm not sad
C
Well I'm mad and I'm bad
C
And two years have gone by


C
Now her world was bright orange
C
And the fire glowed
        F
And her friend had a baby
        C
And she lived with us
C
Yeah, we broke through the window
C
Yeah, we knocked on the door
      F
Her phone would not answer,
      C
Yeah, but she's still home


C
Now her father has passed over
C
and her sister is a star
        F
and her mother smokes diamonds
        C
and she sleeps out in the car


C
Yeah, but she remembers Chicago
C
The musicians & guitars
    F
and grass by the lake
    C
and people who laugh'd
C   
and made her poor heart ache


C
Now we live down in the valley
C
We work out on the farm
     F
We climb up to the mountains
    C
and everything's fine

C
and I'm still here
C
and you're still there
C
and we're still around
