Standard (EADGBE)

 She comes walking down the road

 And I know that dogs won't bark

 She comes walking up the stairs

 She's tap-tap-tapping on my door

 And she'll make those tears to know that it's a must

 But I go blind and my mouth fills up with dust

(the same as first verse)

Says she's open like a book

She's got everything I need

Even wants to take the time

To teach me how to read

(the same as first chorus)

But the ceiling moves on down towards the floor

And soon there's only room enough for us to crawl

 I wanna build her up

 Up as tall as a church

 Just to watch her

 Just to watch her falling down

 I can't see her again

 I just can't see her again

 I've got to see her again

 I've got to see her again

She comes walking down the road

With a kaftan in her hands

She comes walking up the stairs

She's tap-tap-tapping on my door

And she'll make those tears to know that it's a must

But I go blind and my bones start to rust

I wanna build her up

Up as tall as a church

Just to watch her

Just to watch her falling down

I can't see her again

I just can't see her again

I've got to see her again

I've got to see her again
