The Shining Hour Grant Lee Buffalo
[Am]Are we stil[C]l on the phone=20[Bm] [Dm]
[Am]With la[C]dy Anna Clarke and her[Bm] trumpet solo?[Dm]
[Am]Whose ghost[C] sings for pay[Bm] [Dm]
[Am]In the blu[C]e billiard r[Bm]oom of the Mont[Dm]erey
[Am]For r[C]oom and for board[Bm] [Dm]
[Am]And the back [C]door key is a 19th centu[Bm]ry civil war sword[Dm]
[Am]Once owned[C] by John Booth[Bm] [Dm]
Am C Bm Dm =20
And he[Am] misplaced his script when he caught his leather boot
T[G]his could be the shining hour[F] [Dm] [Am]
[G]Based on all this mad belie[F]f[Dm] [Am]
[G]In money oil and angel pow[F]der[Dm] [Am]
G F Dm=09
In the new age magazine=20
There=92s a hole in the wall
Behind the photograph of Al Capone
He=92s sittin=92 down at city hall
The police they peek through here
And they watch you get dressed in the two-way mirror
But it=92s all in good spirits
And if you close eyes you can=92t help, help but to hear =91em move
This could be the shining hour
Based on all this mad belief
In the money oil and angel powder
In the new age magazine
I propose a toast
To the memory of the horse who carried King Tut and his gold
Into the sun
He collapsed last summer from a heat stroke somewhere in the east=20
village, oh=20
And it kills me to think
That I=92m no longer living
Just looking for excuses to dink
So lift up your glass
And your Ouija board =91cause I=92m fading, fading, fading fast
