Title: Picture Window
Music By Ben Folds
Lyrics By Nick Hornby
F C
G F C G
They checked into the hospital new year's eve
F C G
Nothing to be done about that
F C G
Rainbows, daffodils; she's not naïve
F C G
Symbolism's all crap
F
There's a big picture window in their room
C G
On the ward, with a view of a parliament hill
Dm7(4) F C
But the view offers more joy than they can afford
G
When there's this much pain to kill
Dm7(4)
You know what hope is?
G
Hope is a bastard
C/E
Hope is a liar
F
A cheat and a tease
Dm7(4)
Hope comes near you?
G
Kick it's backside
C/E F C G F(9) C G
Got no place in days like these
F C
At dusk the darkness surrenders to color
G
As the fireworks streak the sky
F C
And their window gives them the prettiest picture
G
Their useless luck makes her wanna cry
F C
Then it turns midnight, the shitty old year spent
G
Another Mum gives her some sparkling wine
F C
And she nearly gives in to the moment
G
But she'll still be sick in 2009
Dm7(4)
You know what hope is?
G
Hope is a bastard
C/E
Hope is a liar
F
A cheat and a tease
Dm7(4)
Hope comes near you?
G
Kick it's backside
C/E F C G
Got no place in days like these
