Verse

DThe smart money's on Harlem

DAnd the moon is in the street

The Gshadow boys are A7breaking all the Dlaws

And you're Deast of East Saint A7Louis

And the Dwind is making speeches

And the Grain sounds like a round of A7applause

DNapoleon is weeping

DIn the carnival saloon

His invGisible fiA7ance's in the mDirror

And the Dband is going A7home

It's raining Dhammers, it's raining nails

It's Gtrue there's nothing left for him dA7own here

Chorus

And it's Dtime, A7time, Dtime

And it's Gtime, Dtime, A7time

And it's Dtime, F♯mtime, Gtime, that you Emlove

And it's Dtime, A7time, Dtime

Verse 2

DAnd they all pretend they're orphans

DAnd their memory's like a train

You can Gsee it getting A7smaller as it pulls aDway

And the Dthings you can't reA7member

Tell the Dthings you can't forget

That Ghistory puts a saint in every A7dream

DWell she said she'd stick around

DUntil the bandages came off

But these Gmama's boys just A7don't know when to Dquit

And MatDilda asks the sailA7ors

Are those Ddreams or are those prayers?

So clGose your eys, son and this A7won't hurt a bit

CHORUS...

Verse 3

DWell things are pretty lousy

DFor a calendar girl

The Gboys just dive right A7off the cars and iDnto the street

And Dwhen they're on a A7roll

She pulls a Drazor from her boot

And a Gthousand pigeons fall around her A7feet

DSo put a candle in the window

DAnd a kiss upon his lips

As the Gdish outside the A7window fills with Drain

DJust like a stranA7ger

With the Dweeds in your heart

And Gpay the fiddler off 'till I come A7back again
