Subject: White Innocence Lyrics and Music
Here is WHITE INNOCENCE. I think this song is one of the highlights of the
album. I love the middle of this song, but it should be 4 times longer.
WHITE INNOCENCE
Am7 Em7 Dm7 Bb D7sus4 Am7 Em7 Dm7 Bb D7sus4
Dm Gm
She drifted from some minor festival, ha
F Cm7
Didn't look like any Summer of love
Eb F Gm
Just a thousand weekend worriors in a muddy field
Dm C
It was the hand to fit my glove
Bb C Dsus4
Funny thing the innocence of the lonely
Bb C Dsus4
Funny thing the charm of the young
Dm Gm
She how she moves just like two angels, white innocence
F Cm7
Yea one of them is on the run
Eb F Gm
The other's tapping at my car window
Dm C
Mum, and I'm squinting through the sun
Bb C Dsus4
Trying to see if she's some child of the nineties
Bb C Dsus4 Gm
Or just another dangerous fantasy of mine, yea
White innocence, white innocence
White innocence, she was white innocence
Am7 Em7 Dm7 Bb D7sus4 Am7 Em7 Dm7 Bb D7sus4
Dm Gm
A perfect whole was in her stocking
F Cm7
It made a perfect window to the heart
Eb F Gm
It could have moved among the waterfalls
Dm C
A mist of curtains drawn apart
Dm Gm
Did you say you want saftey in my numbers
F Cm7
Go on and hitch a ride this way
Eb F Gm
Felt like I was taking her market now
Dm C
To be sold as the last luck of the day
Bb C Dsus4
Funny thing the distance of the lonely
Bb C Dsus4 Gm
Funny thing the charm of the young, white innocence
White innocence, white innocence
C Dm
White innocence, white innocence
Gm C
White innocence, white innocence
F Eb Bb Gm
White innocence, white, white innocence
Dm C
She pressed the button, lowered the window
F C Gm
Let her hand trailing the slipstream of the night
F C
A frost from nowhere seemed to lick her fingers
Bb C Dm
I could of warmed them but the moment wasn't right
Em G Em D D F Bb Ab Eb Bb Db Ab
Dm C
Obvious she was headed nowhere special, yea
F C Gm
Well it was even obvious to me
F C
I was doing some, some watching, some waiting
Bb C Dm
She'd been here before most definitely
Gm
It was the promise of early bedtime hum
F Cm7
It was the promise of heaven on earth
Eb F Gm
Think I was sending out local to GE electricity
Dm C
Played it right down for what it was worth
Dm Gm
She turn and looked at me in white innocence
F Cm7
And with the clearest eyes of forever gray
Eb F Gm
She rested one small hand for a second on my knee
Dm C
stopped the car, she walked away mum
Bb C Dsus4
Funny thing the wisdom of the lonely
Bb C Dsus4
Funny thing the charm of the young
Gm
Away you go now
White innocence, white innocence
C Dm
White innocence, white innocence
Gm C
White innocence, white innocence
F Eb Bb Gm
White innocence, white, white innocence
White innocence
