Hello. This is a lovely song by a 17 year old Australian girl called Lisa Mitchell, I
she appeared on some sort of Australian Idol or something like that, but to be honest I
think she has to stoop to that level, because she's pretty damn good.
This first wee riff during the verses, is a bit weird as in the video I was watching on
myspace, she varies it too much to actually make out any kind of pattern. I think she's
to be just playing the A and D strings in the C chord and the A and G strings in the E
Hmpph, complicated description. To be honest I'd just play it like it's tabbed.
C E Am F (Could be Fmaj7?)

Lyrics:
(Verse Riff)
You'll go and I'll be okay,
I can dream the rest away.
Its just a little touch of fate, it will be okay.
It sure takes its precious time, but it's got rights and so have I.
I turn my head up to the sky
I focus one thought at a time
I do not let the little thieves under my tightly buttoned sleeves
You couldn't be alone, the time I feel like I am walking blind
I have nowhere, I'll have time
(Chorus Riff)
There are no legible signs x2
(Verse Riff)
I like the way that you talk,
I like the way that you walk.
It's hard to recreate such an individual game
You wait your turn in the queue,
You say your sorry's and thank you's.
I don't think you're ever
A hundred percent in the room
(Chorus Riff)
You're not in the room x2
(Verse Riff)
Deepest, of the dark nights
here lies, the highest of highs
Neopolitan Dreams, stretching out to the sea
You wait your turn in the queue,
You say your sorry's and thank you's
I don't think you're ever
A hundred percent in the room
(Surprise, surprise: Chorus Riff)
You're not in the room x2
End on an F for FIN.
