Sally Suspended
Lyrics by Robert Edgar
Music by Dave Allender, Tim Johnson and Robert Edgar
Am/A Am/G
Blank Slate. Sweet tongue.
Am/F# F E
Forthright. Warp speed.
Am/A Am/G
Light weight. Unsung.
Am/F# F E
Short flight. Spent seed.
F G C Am
Where Grant meets Columbus Sally blinks her eye.
F G C Am E
Trash rolls like tumbleweeds, dusk soaks up the sky.
Am/A Am/G
Downtown. Up right.
Am/F# F E
Left turn. Dim sum.
Am/A Am/G
Low down. Up tight.
Am/F# F E
Slow burn. Lose some.
F G C Am
Step inside for coffee, watch mirrors on the wall.
F G C Am E
Grab a cube of sugar, two bits to make a call.
F G C Em7 Am G
Sally shuffles in the crowded street.
F G C Em7 Am G
Sally whispers in the ci - ty din.
F G Am
Sally pours shadows in the night.
Am/A Am/G
Slow life. Iron wire.
Am/F# F E
Slave trade. Wild fire.
Am/A Am/G
Fish wife. Church choir.
Am/F# F E
Dull blade. Town crier.
F G C Am
Where Grant meets Columbus another bus comes by.
F G C Am E
Sally rubs a tattoo of a mottled butterfly.
