[Verse 1]Em G D Bm
Crickets are chirping the water is high,
Em G D Bm
there's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry
Em G D Bm
Windows wide open. African trees,
Em G D Em
bent over backwards in a hurricane breeze.
D
She gave no reply, not even a note
Em G D Em
She's gone with the man in the long black coat.
[Bridge]C G
There are no mistakes in life some people say,
Em G D Em
And it's true sometimes, you can see it that way.
C G
People dont live or die, people just float.
Em G D Em
She gave her heart to the man in the long Black coat.
