[Intro]

Em Em D D C C B B
Em Em D D C C B B


[Verse]

Em Em D D C C
You got the lights on in the afternoon
B B Em Em
And the nights are drawn out long
D D C C
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom
B B Em Em
With a cough drop coloured tongue
D D C C
You were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
B B Em Em
And I thought you might be mine

D D C C
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
B B
In the right place and time


[Chorus]

Em Em D D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C C B B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em Em D D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C C B B
And your knee socks


[Verse]

Em Em D D C C
Well you cured my January blues,
B B Em Em
yeah you made it all alright
D D C C
I got a feeling I might've lit the very fuse
B B Em Em
that you were trying not to light
D D C C
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
B B Em Em
Cause I had nothing to lose
D D C C
When the Winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true
B B
Ain't it funny what you'll do?


[Chorus]

Em Em D D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C C B B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em Em D D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C C B B
And your knee socks


[Bridge]

C C D D
In late afternoon, the ghost in your room
Em Em
That you always thought didn't approve of you knocking boots
C C B B
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot
Em Em
By the scruff of your knee socks

Em Em
You and me could've been a team
Each had a half of a king-and-queen seat
Like the beginning of Mean Streets you could Be My Baby

(The zeros lined up but the number's blocked)
(When you've come undone)


[Chorus]

Em Em D D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C C B B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em Em D D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C C B B
And your knee socks

About this song: Knee Socks

Perhaps the album’s best song is tucked away just before it ends. Everything about this track is sexy…from the bass drum and simple guitar riff as it opens, to the imagery conjured up by a line like “When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste… And your knee socks". And we’re bouncing as the images in Alex’s head come together in a parting crescendo. Read more on Last.fm.
