None of them
G B7 Em
Sometimes it seems unimaginable
Am B7
That you were ever any other way
Am Em
With your white rose face and your orphan clothes,
Am B7
Embroidered jeans and silver chains
G B7 Em
You're a well known face in all the hang-out places
Am B7
Where the lost souls congregate
Am Em
And you sit all night, but you talk too fast
Am B7
And I don't know what you're trying to say.
Chorus
Em C D Em D C
Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, uh hunh
Em C D Em D C
Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, uh hunh
Am B7 Em
You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays.
G B7 Em
I know your daddy said he'd talk to you
Am B7
But he never really found the time
Am B7 Em
And your tv mother with her cocktail eyes
Am B7
Could never really reach your mind
G B7 Em
So you fixed your star to a passing dream
Am B7
And took a cocaine holiday
Am Em
Now the years flow round you in a muddy stream
Am B7
And you need another place to stay.
Chorus
Em C D Em D C
Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, uh hunh
Em C D Em D C
Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, uh hunh
Am B7 Em
You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays.
G D Em A
Reach down, silvery ship from the stars, I know you're there,
G D Em A
I know you'll understand me, you can take me anywhere,
G A
I know you must be there...
G B7 Em
Sometimes it seems impossible
Am B7
That the game could get that rough
Am Em
But the stage is set, the exit's barred
Am B7
And the make-up won't come off
G B7 Em
So you make your bow to the balcony,
Am B7
You light another cigarette
Am Em
and the lights grow dim as the music starts
Am Em
And it's easy to forget.
Chorus
Em C D Em D C
Oh Carol, I think it's time for running for cover, uh hunh
Em C D Em D C
Believe me, you're everyone's and nobody's lover, uh hunh
Am B7 Em
You've got a one-way ticket for all your yesterdays.
G D Em A
Reach down, silvery ship from the stars, I know you're there,
G D Em A
I know you'll understand me, you can take me anywhere,
G A
I know you must be there...
