Jolie Holland - Crush In The Ghetto Chords

Jolie Holland - Crush In The Ghetto Chords

INTRO:
NONE


VERSE:
     C                 G
I'm floating with the birds
     C               G
I'm talking to the weeds
 Am               C      G
Look what you've done to me

      F           G                    C
I'm still dressed up from the night before
 F                  C            G
Silken hose and an old Parisian coat


CHORUS:
       F            G
And I feel like a queen 
        C                F
At the bus stop on the street
 Am               C      G
Look what you've done to me


VERSE:
        F         G              Em
It's a beautiful morning in the ghetto
 F              C     G
Finer than the day before

     Am        G               C              F
The ants are crawling over my pants as if to say
                     C    G
They know where the honey is

         F          G             Em
There's really old roses blooming in the ghetto
 F            C                   G
Birds of paradise are taller than me

     Am         G
The weeds grow high, 
     C            F
The birds flicker by
              C           G
Children are walking to school

        Am       G             Em
In the midst of all of this profusion
     F               C            G
The bus pulls up to take me back home

     F          C            F
The bus driver looks like an African prince
    Am            C             G   
The babies have tears in their eyes


CHORUS:
       F            G
And I feel like a queen
         C          F
On this sunny city bus
 Am               C      G
Look what you've done to me
