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
