Knee Socks

Intro Em D C B x2 Em D C you got the lights on in the afternoon B Em and the nights are drawn out long D C and you’re kissing to cut through the gloom B Em with a cough drop coloured tongue D C you were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high B Em and i thought you might be mine D C in a small world on an exceptionally rainy tuesday night B in the right place and time ( Chorus ) Em D when the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock C B when you know who’s calling even though the number is blocked Em D when you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste C B and your knee socks Em D C well you cured my january blues , B Em yeah you made it all alright D C i got a feeling i might’ve lit the very fuse B Em that you were trying not to light D C you were a stranger in my phonebook i was acting like i knew B Em cause i had nothing to lose D C when the winter’s in full swing and your dreams just aren’t coming true B ain’t it funny what you’ll do? ( Chorus ) Em D when the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock C B when you know who’s calling even though the number is blocked Em D when you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste C B and your knee socks ( Bridge ) C D in late afternoon , the ghost in your room Em that you always thought didn’t approve of you knocking boots C B never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot Em by the scruff of your knee socks Em you and me could’ve been a team each had a half of a king - and - queen seat like the beginning of mean streets you could be my baby ( the zeros lined up but the number’s blocked ) ( when you’ve come undone ) ( Chorus ) Em D when the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock C B when you know who’s calling even though the number is blocked Em D when you walked around your house wearing my sky blue lacoste C B and your knee socks
