D D
The smart money's on Harlem
D D
And the moon is in the street
G G A7 A7 D D
The shadow boys are breaking all the laws
D D A7 A7
And you're east of East Saint Louis
D D
And the wind is making speeches
G G A7 A7
And the rain sounds like a round of applause


D D
Napoleon is weeping
D D
In the carnival saloon
G G A7 A7 D D
His invisible fiance's in the mirror
D D A7 A7
And the band is going home
D D
It's raining hammers, it's raining nails
G G A7 A7
It's true there's nothing left for him down here


CHORUS:

D D A7 A7 D D
And it's time, time, time
G G D D A7 A7
And it's time, time, time
D D F#m F#m G G Em Em
And it's time, time, time, that you love
D D A7 A7 D D
And it's time, time, time


VERSE 2:

D D
And they all pretend they're orphans
D D
And their memory's like a train
G G A7 A7 D D
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away
D D A7 A7
And the things you can't remember
D D
Tell the things you can't forget
G G A7 A7
That history puts a saint in every dream

D D
Well she said she'd stick around
D D
Until the bandages came off
G G A7 A7 D D
But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit
D D A7 A7
And Matilda asks the sailors
D D
Are those dreams or are those prayers?
G G A7 A7
So close your eys, son and this won't hurt a bit


CHORUS...


VERSE 3:

D D
Well things are pretty lousy
D D
For a calendar girl
G G A7 A7 D D
The boys just dive right off the cars and into the street
D D A7 A7
And when they're on a roll
D D
She pulls a razor from her boot
G G A7 A7
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet


D D
So put a candle in the window
D D
And a kiss upon his lips
G G A7 A7 D D
As the dish outside the window fills with rain
D D A7 A7
Just like a stranger
D D
With the weeds in your heart
G G A7 A7
And pay the fiddler off 'till I come back again


CHORUS x2
