[Verso 1]
 
                     G#m 
Thought of him while showering 
Humming Carole King 
                 Amaj7  
Afterwards she's toweling off 
The Bowery softly lifts to her loft 
                E          E 
All that lonely houring is flowering 
      Amaj7            Ammaj7 
She's howling from the balcony 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
    A  
Oh, darling, you're a looker 
Bruised up like a hooker 
F#m7 
Wrists red where he shook ya 
                B7 
Got upset, motherfucker 
 


[Refrão]
 
F#m            
Don't stand a word they're saying 
E             Emaj7    C#m7 
He is waiting for you, Lois Lane 
          F#                  
And he'll come faster than a speeding train 
      E          Emaj7  C#m7 
If it comes down to it, Lois Lane 
A                  Am   E 
She's young, you'll understand 

E Emaj7 C#m7 
 


[Ponte]
 
G#m 
I found a note from God 
floating in a bottle in the Long Island Sound 
Amaj7  
I took it out, unrolled it 
Made sure nobody was around 
         G#m 
It said, "Hey, I got your prayer, 
       G#7 
but I'm sorry, I'm not there 
         Amaj7 
I'll be out of the office, 
        Ammaj7       Am7 
doesn't mean I don't care" 
                E          E 
All that lonely houring is flowering 
      Amaj7            Ammaj7 
She's howling from the balcony

Oh, darling, you're a looker

F#m            
Don't stand a word they're saying 
E             Emaj7    C#m7 
He is waiting for you, Lois Lane 
F#                            
And he'll come faster than a speeding train 
      E          Emaj7  C#m7 
If it comes down to it, Lois Lane 
 

Outro 
A                  Am  E 
She's young, you'll understand 
      A       Ammaj7  E 
She's waiting for her man 
A             Am       E 
The Pall Malls numbs the pain 
   A        Am   E6 
My darling, Lois Lane (Baby, please)
