Haunted Episodes — текст песни (Graham Parker)

Capo at 3 /C /B etc mean passing bass notes

G C /C /B
I wonder what you are thinkin`
Am7
under the rooftops there
D
pullin` tangles from your hair
G C /C /B
I wonder if the water you`re drinkin`
Am7
comes from a purer stream
D
The one where sunlight gleams
Bm Am7
Things round here don`t get any clearer
Bm Am7 D
Stuff that once seemed in reach is not any nearer


I wonder if that house is still standin` or did they knock it flat
Well that`s progress that`s that I wonder who was more demanding
We were just young I guess neither would settle for less
Still it`s not a whole life story is it
It`s just a page I turned and there you were in it

I wonder how you are farin` not sliding down a slope
takin` the knocks I hope
I wonder where your eyes are starin`
Not into some emptiness into someone`s I guess
but that still won`t make things any clearer
people seem to drift apart instead of getting nearer

I wonder what you are doin` under the evening sky
watchin` your life go by
I wonder if that place is in ruins and all the doors are closed
that`s just the way it goes
I wonder what there is worth keepin` from haunted episodes
that briefly woke us from sleepin`
