[Intro ]
C  G  Am  Am/G  F  G  C 

 
C                            G 
The last time I that I seen her 
 Am                       Am/G 
She was standing on the sidewalk 
 F                     G 
In front of the town café 
 C                       G 
And she smiled and she waved 
Am 
When I called out her name 
F                                G 
Then she just looked back down again 

Dm                                   Am 
Maybe she didnt want me to come on over 
F                    G 
Maybe she was only ashamed 
C                        G             Am 
Of the bright coloured paint that she wore on her face 
F                             G             C 
And those high heels that she wears in the rain 
 

 
C                 G           Am     Am/G 
They had them a place on the 16th line 
F                         G 
A mile or so outside the city 
         C             G       Am                Am/G 
And the truckers come in with all their sad stories 
          F                     G 
And they feed m breakfast and pity 
 

 
          Dm                    Am 
But the days were long and the work was hard 
F                          G 
And I guess she decided to trade 
C           G      Am            Am/G 
Bacon and eggs, a buck ninety nine 
F                         G           C 
For high heels she could wear in the rain 
 

 
C                G        Am      Am/G 
She moved into town, she got a place 
F                         G 
That backs of on to the street 
C              G          Am              Am/G 
Him and me we sit in the shadows we listened 
F                                      G 
To the music coming down through her screen 
            Dm                        Am 
And in the morning she wakes up and draws back the curtains 
F                             G 
And looks out on a brand new day 
C               G          Am                  Am/G 
She put on her things and steps into the streets 
            F                    G           C 
With those high heels that she wears in the rain 
 

Outro

The last time I that I seen her 
 {AM} 
She was standing on the sidewalk 
 F                     G 
In front of the town café
