[Verse]
    Dsus4   Dm7          D7  C         C7
You got the lights on in the afternoon ■ 
        B7                   Em  
And the nights are drawn out long
                      D               C    
And you're kissin' to cut through the gloom
       B7         Em             
With a cough drop coloured tongue
                                            C                   
And you were sittin' in the corner with the coats all piled high
                           Em  
And I thought you might be mine
                    D                C                  
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
B7                 Em      
In the right place and time


[Chorus]
Em                                                 
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
Am       C                                  Em               
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
     Em                                                      
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
         C          Bm7 Em
And your knee socks ■   ■ 


[Verse]
                  Dsus4   C    
Well you cured my January blues
     B7              Em      E7
Yeah you made it all alright ■ 
Em         D                                 C7   C
I've got a feelin' I might have lit the very fuse ■
              B7            Em   
That you were tryin' not to light
           G              D           C                     
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was actin' like I knew
         B7                  Em
'cause I had nothin' to lose ■ 
         Em                        
When the winter's in full swing and
     D           C                 
Your dreams just aren't comin' true
Em                           
Ain't it funny what you'll do


[Chorus]
                                              D    
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
         C                                  Bm7    Em        
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
                                             D               
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
         C          Bm7
And your knee socks ■  
Em Am                     C                 
■  The late afternoon the ghost in your room
                Em                    
That you always thought didn't approve
       D             
Of you knockin' boots
              C                      
Never stopped you lettin' me get hold
       B7                          Em  
Of the sweet spot by the scruff of your


[Bridge]
Em        
Knee socks
                           Em    
You and me could have been a team
                                    Em  
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Em                                
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
          Em        
You could be my baby
                           Em    
You and me could have been a team
                                    Em  
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
Em                                
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
    Em              
You could be my baby
                      Em7        
You and me could have been a team
                                    C   
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
                           C      
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
Em  Bsus4 Em G     C Bsus4 Em           
You ■     ■  could ■ ■     ■  be my baby


[Chorus]
           Em                    
You and me could have been a team
         Em                             
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
C                                 
Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
          Em        
You could be my baby
                    Em                             
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
                                 C                 Em        
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
                                  D                          
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
    C              
And your knee socks
                              Em                   
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
                            Em                               
When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
                                          C           Em     
When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste

Knee socks
          
Knee socks
