[Verse]
C C/B
They say Taylor was a good girl, never one to be late
Am F C C/B Am F
complain, express ideas in her brain
C C/B
Working on the night shift, passing out the tickets,
Am F C C/B Am F
you're gonna have to pay her if you want to park here
C C/B
Well, mommy's little dancer has quite a little secret
Am F C C/B Am F
working on the streets now, never gonna keep it
C C/B
It's quite an imposition and now she's only wishing
Am F C C/B Am
that she would have listened to the words they said
F
Poor Taylor
[Chorus]
C C/B Am F C
She just wanders around, unaffected by
C/B Am F C
the winter winds and she'll pretend that
C/B Am F C
she's somewhere else, so far and clear
C/B Am
About two thousand miles from here
[Verse]
C C/B Am F
Peter Patrick pitter patters on the window
C C/B Am F
but Sunny Silhouette won't let him in
C C/B Am F
Poor old Pete's got nothing because he's been falling
C C/B Am F
Somehow Sunny knows just where he's been
C C/B Am F
He thinks that singing on Sunday is gonna save his soul
C C/B Am F
now that Saturday is gone
C C/B Am F
Sometimes he thinks that he's on his way
C C/B Am
but I can see
F
that his brake lights are on
[Chorus]
C C/B Am F C
He just wanders around, unaffected by
C/B Am F C
the winter winds and he'll pretend that
C/B Am F C
he's somewhere else, so far and clear
C/B Am
About two thousand miles from here
[Verse]
C C/B
Such a tough enchilada, filled up with nada
Am F C C/B Am F
giving what she gotta give to get a dollar bill
C C/B
Used to be a limber chicken, time's a been a ticking
Am F
Now she's finger licking to the man
C C/B
With the money in his pocket, flying in his rocket
Am F C Dadd4add9 F
Only stopping by on his way to a better world
G C Dadd4add9 F
If Taylor finds a better world
G C
then Taylor's gonna run away
