Standard (EADGBE)
Well I want to take a streetcar downtown
Read Henry Miller and wander around
And drink some Guinness from a tin
'Cause my U.I. cheque has just come in
Ah, where you been because,
Chorus
Everything is comin' up Rosy & Grey
Yeah, the wind is cold but the smell of snow warms me today
And your smile is fine and it's just like mine
And it won't go away
'Cause everything is Rosy & Grey
Well you've been under my skin for more than eight years
It's been eight years of laughter and eight years of tears
And I don't know what the future (can/)will hold or (will/)can do
For me and you
But, I'm a much better man for havin' known you
Ah, you know that's true because...
Chorus
Bridge
Well I've been told that there's a sucker born every day
But I wonder who, yeah I wonder who
Maybe the one who doesn't realize there's a thousand shades of grey
'Cause I know that's true, yes I do, I know it's true, yeah, I know it's
true
How 'bout you
Well they're pickin' up trash and they're puttin' down roads
And they're brokering stocks, the class struggle explodes
And I'll play this guitar just the best that I can
Well maybe I'm not and maybe I am
Well who gives a damn because...
Chorus
Well I've kissed you in France and I've kissed you in Spain
And I've kissed you in places I better not name
And I've seen the sun go down on Sacre Coeur
But I like it much better goin' down on you
Yeah You know that's true because...
