[Verse]
             Fm    
Well I'll be damned
           Db              
Here comes your ghost again
               Ab     
But that's not unusual
                   Eb          
It's just that the moon is full
                    Fm  
And you happened to call
    Fm        
And here I sit
            Db       
Hand on the telephone
          Ab             
Hearing a voice I'd known
            Eb             
A couple of light years ago
                       Fm  
Heading straight for a fall
     Fm                
As I remember your eyes
                Db          
Were bluer than robin's eggs
              Ab            
My poetry was lousy you said
              Eb          
Where are you calling from
               Fm     
A booth in the Midwest


[Chorus]
                           Db            
Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks
               Ab       
You brought me something
             Eb                     
We both know what memories can bring


[Inst]
                    Fm  C7 Fm Db  
They bring diamonds and ■  ■  rust


[Verse]
Ab  Eb Fm  Db Ab Eb  Fm Cm Cm7                       
Now I  see ■  ■  you ■  ■  standing with brown leaves


[Chorus]
                               Bbm7 Bbm 
Falling all around and snow in your hair
           Cm7                   
Now you're smiling out the window
                                     Bbm7   Bbm Bbm7
Of that crummy hotel over Washington Square ■   ■   
    Db                           
Our breath comes out white clouds
                     Ab     
Mingles and hangs in the air
Gb                      
Speaking strictly for me
                                 Ab    C7
We both could have died then and there ■

[Verse]
Fm                                  Db       
■  Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic
                     Ab         
Then give me another word for it
         Eb                
You were so good with words
               Fm          
And at keeping things vague


[Chorus]
       Fm                               
'cause I need some of that vagueness now
                   Db         
It's all come back too clearly
                Ab    
Yes I loved you dearly
                          Eb               
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
             Fm  
I've already paid


[Outro]
