In Liverpool — Suzanne Vega

Chords and lyrics for In Liverpool by Suzanne Vega (key of C#).

Verse 1

Title: In Liverpool
In Liverpool
[Fm]In Liverpool on Sunday
No traffic on the Avenue
The light is pale and thin like you
No sound, down in this part [D#]of town
Except for the [C#9]boy in the [C#]belfry
He's [D#]crazy, he's throwing [Cm]himself
Down from the [Fm]top of the [Fm7]tower[C#9]
Like a [C#]hunchback in [D#]heaven
He's ringing the [Cm]bells in the church
For the [Fm]last half an [Fm7]hour[C#9]
He [C#]sounds like he's [D#]missing something
Or [Cm]someone that he knows he [Fm]can't
[D#]Have [C#]now and if he [D#]isn't
I certainly [Fm]am
[Fm]Homesick for a clock that told the same time
Sometimes you made no sense to me
If you lie on the ground in somebody's arms
You'll probably swallow some on their history[D#]
And the [C#9]boy in the [C#]belfry
He's [D#]crazy, he's throwing [Cm]himself
Down from the [Fm]top of the [Fm7]tower[C#9]
Like a [C#]hunchback in [D#]heaven
He's ringing the [Cm]bells in the church
For the [Fm]last half an [Fm7]hour[C#9]
He [C#]sounds like he's [D#]missing something
Or [Cm]someone that he knows he [Fm]can't
[D#]Have [C#]now and if he [D#]isn't
I certainly [Fm][G#]am[D#][C#]
[Fm]I'll be the girl who sings for my supper
You'll be the monk whose forehead is high
He'll be the man who's already working
Spreading a memory all through the sky
In [Fm]Liverpool on Sunday
No reason to even remember you [D#]now
Except for the [C#9]boy in the [C#]belfry
He's [D#]crazy, he's throwing [Cm]himself
Down from the [Fm]top of the [Fm7]tower[C#9]
Like a [C#]hunchback in [D#]heaven
He's ringing the [Cm]bells in the church
For the [Fm]last half an [Fm7]hour[C#9]
He [C#]sounds like he's [D#]missing something
Or [Cm]someone that he knows he [Fm]can't
[D#]Have [C#]now and if he [D#]isn't
I certainly [Fm]am[D#][C#][G#]
[Fm]In [G#]Liverpool[D#][C#]
[Fm]In [G#]Liverpool[D#][C#]
