[Verse]
Ain't itA just like the night to playD tricks when you're E7tryin' to be so Aquiet We sit here stranded though we're all Ddoin' our bE7est to deny Ait And LouiEse holds a handful of rain temptin' you to defAy it Lights flDicker from the opposite lAoft In tDhis room the heat pipes just coAugh The cDountry music station plays soft ABut there's nothing really nothing to turn ofE7f Just LouiAse and her Dlover E7so enAtwined And these visionsD of JohannaA that E7conquer my mind A D A
In the empty Alot where the ladies playD blind man's E7bluff with the Akey chain And the allnight girls they whisDper of escapadE7es out on the D trAain We can hEear the night watchman click his flashlight Ask himself if it's him or them that's realy insAane LouDise she's allright she's just neaAr She's dDelicate and seems like theA mirror But she just mDakes it all too concice and too clear AThat Johanna's not here E7 The Aghost of 'lectricity Dhowls in the bE7ones of her Aface Where these visionsD of JohannaA have now E7taken my place A D A
Now lAittle boy lost he takesD himself so seE7riouslyA He brags of his misery he likes Dto live dE7angerously A And when briEnging her name up He speaks of a farewell kiss to Ame He's sDure got a lotta Agall to Dbe so useless and Aall MutterDing small talk at the wall Awhile I'm in the haE7ll How can AI explain Oh itD's so harE7d to get onA And these visionsD of JohannaA they kept me uE7p past the dawn A D A
InsAide the museums DInfinity goE7es up on tArial Voices echo this is what salDvation must be E7like after a whilAe But Mona ELisa musta had the highway blues You can tell by the way she Asmiles See the pDrimitive wallflower frAeeze When the jeDllyfaced women all snAeeze Hear the Done with the mustache say JeeAze I can't find my knees E7 Oh jeAwels and binoculars haDng from the heE7ad of the muAle But these visions oDf Johanna tAhey make iE7t all seem so cAruel D A
The pAeddler now speaks to the coDuntess who's preteE7nding to cAare for him Sayin' Name me someone that's not a parasite Dand I'll go out E7and say a prayer Afor him But like Louise Ealways says Ya can't look at much can ya man As she herself pre Apares for him And MaDdonna she still has not showAed We see this eDmpty cage now corroDde Where her cDape of the stage once had flAowed The fiddler hDe now steps to the roAad He writes Dev'rything's been returned which was Aowed On the backD of the fish truck that loadsA While my conscience expE7lodes The harmAonicas play the sDkeleton Ekeys and the Arain And these visionsD of JohannaA are now E7all that reAmain
