Punch And Judy

	  		



Dsus2                        Dsus2              Dsus2   C  F  riff 1 
a wallpaper pulls his punch, talks to judy in a crowded corner 
Dsus2                      Dsus2      Dsus2    C  F  riff 1 
he don't read page to page or say the words in order 
Dsus2                   Dsus2            Dsus2  C        F  riff 1 
judy's illustrating and she's a stranger to the straight face 
Dsus2                     Dsus2   Dsus2 C  F    riff 1 
always seems so far away, staring out into space 

hihat break 

Dsus2                     Dsus2              Dsus2   C      F      riff 1  
"i'm sorry, tried to stay away" says punch, "later account, though" 
Dsus2                      Dsus2           Dsus2     C  F  riff 1 
you dress like an opposite but really it's more than echo 
Dsus2                   Dsus2                            Dsus2     C   F riff 1 
judy leans over, like a strike of a clock says, "i don't buy that, boy." 
Dsus2                     Dsus2                  Dsus2 C   F  riff 1 
there's two inside of you and they're both gonna be destroyed.� 

F#m                        C# 
in the alley, mixing blood cheek to cheek 
Bbm                   G#                    F#m           G#m B 
you're up against the words you never could dare to speak 
F#m                C# 
it's your conflict shored up tight 
Bbm        G#                    F#m         C# 
your heavy steps that follow her steps so light 

Dsus2                Dsus2            Dsus2        C    F riff 1        
so judy holds punch, cufflinks inside her clenched fist 
Dsus2              Dsus2       Dsus2   C    F riff 1 
she had a dream of bandages on punch's wrist 
Dsus2                    Dsus2                        Dsus2      C   F riff 1 
so she sees punch with a thorn in his hand and says, "stop right there 
Dsus2                 Dsus2           Dsus2  C  F  riff 1          
what the fuck are you doing don't you know i care?" 

hihat break 

Dsus2                       Dsus2                Dsus2 C  F   riff 1 
but she hears the bark of a cop and drops to the dirty street 
Dsus2                           Dsus2                    Dsus2      C  F riff 1 
"i wonder," punch says, "do you know what at all, what's protecting me?" 
Dsus2                Dsus2                 Dsus2    C   F  riff 1    
judy used to hold me like a pencil writing out some change 
Dsus2                 Dsus2     Dsus2      C  F  riff 1 
her cheap philosopher was spare change for brains
