Verse 1
[A] I thought I saw you in the Battleship
[D] but it was only a [Bm] look-a-like
[A] She was nothing but a vision trick
[D] Under the [Bm] warning light
She was [F#m] close, [A] close enough to be your [F#m] ghost
But my [A] chances turned to toast
When I [D] asked her if I [Bm] could call her your [A] name [F#m] [A] [F#m]
Verse 2
[A] I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
[D] Huddled up in a [Bm] wicker chair
[A] I wandered over for a closer look
[D] And kissed whoever was [Bm] sitting there
She was [F#m] close, and she [A] held me very [F#m] tightly
'Til I [A] asked awfully politely, [D] please
Can [Bm] I call you [A] her [F#m] name [A] [F#m] [E]
Chorus
And I [D] elongated my lift [Bm] home,
[F#m] Yeah, I let him go the long way 'rou[D] nd
I [Bm] smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And [E] kept my shortcuts to myself
Instrumental
[A] [D] [E]
Verse 3
[A] I thought I saw you in the Parrot's Beak,
[D] Messing with the [Bm] smoke alarm,
[A] It was too loud for me to hear her speak,
[D] And she had a [Bm] broken arm,
It was [F#m] close, [A] so close that the walls were [F#m] wet
And she [A] wrote it out in [D] letra-set
No, you [Bm] can't call me her [C#m] name
Bridge
[A] Tell me where's your [C#m] hiding place
[A] I'm worried I'll [C#m] forget your face
And [F#m] I've asked everyone
I'm [Bm] beginning to think I [E] imagined you all [E6] along
Chorus
And I [D] elongated my lift [Bm] home,
[F#m] Yeah, I let him go the long way [D] 'round
I [Bm] smelt your scent on the seatbelt
And [Dm] kept my shortcuts to myself
Solo

Verse 4
[A] I saw your sister in the Cornerstone
[D] On the phone to the [Bm] middle man
[A] When I saw that she was on her own
[D] I thought she might [Bm] understand
She was [F#m] close, well you [A] couldn't get much [F#m] closer
She said I'm [A] really not supposed to but [D] yes,
You can [Bm] call me anything you [A] want
