Verse 1
C
F
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks

when you try and be so quiet?
And we sit here stranded,

though we're all doing
G
C
our best to deny it.
G
And Louise holds a handful of rain
C
F
C
Tempting you to defy it
F
Dm
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
C
F
Dm
C
In this room the heat pipes just cough
F
Dm
C
The country music station plays soft,
G
but there's nothing to turn off
C
F
G
C
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
F
C
F
C
While these visions of Johanna
G
C
have now conquered my mind
Out on the empty lot
F
G
where ladies play blind men's
C
F
C
bluff with a keychain
And the all -night girls,
F
G
they whisper of escapades
C
F
C
out on the B -train
G
And you can hear the night watchman
flick his flashlight,
C
F
C
is it him or them, that's in sane
F
C
Oh Louise, she's al right,
Dm
C
she's just queer
F
You know, she's delicate,
C
Dm
C
she seems like veneer
F
And she picks it out all too concise
Dm
C
and too clear
G
Johanna's not here
C
All the ghosts of electricity
F
G
C
F
C
Howls in the bones of her face
F
C
While these visions of Johanna
G
C
F
have now taken the place
C
Well now, little boy lost,
F
G
C
F
C
he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery,
F
G
C
F
C
he likes to live so dangerously
G
And on bringing her name up,
C
F
C
he speaks of her farewell kiss to me
F
C
Dm
Oh, he's sure got a lot of gall
C
F
C
Dm
to be so useless and all
C
F
C
Dm
Like muttering small talk at the wall
C
G
while I'm in the hall
C
Oh, how can I explain,
F
G
C
F
C
it seems so hard to get on
F
C
While these visions of Johanna
G
C
F
C
kept me up way past the dawn
Inside the museum,
F
G
C
F
C
infinity goes up on trial
F
Voices echo, this is what salvation
G
C
must be like after a while
G
And even Mona Lisa
must have had the highway blues
C
F
C
You can tell by the way she smiles
F
C
F
Ah, see the primitive wallflowers breeze
C
F
And the jelly -faced women,
Dm
C
you can hear them all sneeze
F
Dm
And the one with the moustache say,
C
G
Geez, I can't find my niece.
C
Or jewels and binoculars
F
G
C
F
C
hang from the head of the mule.
F
C
All these visions of Johanna
G
C
F
C
F
C
make it all seem so cruel.
The peddler now speaks
F
to the countess,
G
C
F
C
she's pretending to care for him,
Saying, name me someone
who's not a parasite,
F
G
I'll go out and I will say
C
F

a prayer for him.
G
But like Louise always says,
you can't look too much to any man,
C
F
C
She herself prepares for him
F
C
Dm
C
See the empty cage now cor rode
F
Dm
C
Wear her cape of the stage once it flows
F
C
But bitter, he goes on back to the road
F
He writes, everything's been returned
Dm
C
which was old
F
On the back of the fish
C
truck which loads
G
While my conscience explodes
C
F
All harmonicas play the skeleton
G
C
F
C
keys in the rain
F
C
While these visions of Johanna
G
C
are now all that remain
They still remain you
