Demo version, recorded at the kitchen table on an iPhone

lyrics

She never slept
in the Chelsea Hotel
but she bought an old guitar
just ‘round the corner

How did she get
to rusty trucks and daises?

We all got sick
in the winter
and she died
in the spring
So we learn to sleep
through the lonely

I’ll find a way
to get back to Coney

How do I get
to rusty trucks and daises?

Cold cups of coffee
oh it’s a cold, cold cup of coffee
Yeah, they say they got horses
way up there babe,
Yeah they say they got horses.

We never knew
how she learned that guitar
hollow and red
played it ‘til she bled
ski hats and parkas
on the 4th of July
Hilly’s old dog
that howled and whined

As we tumbled
and tangoed
on the tiniest stage
those spitball kids
to Lorraine’s surprise

They had no tattoos
no magic powder, no pixie dust
clean scrubbed and smiling
like a Cheshire Cat’s clowder
