Simple Twist Of Fate

EThey sat together in the park
Emaj7As the evening sky grew dark
E7She looked at him and he felt a spark Atingle to his bones
Am’Twas then he felt alone and Ewished that he’d gone Asus2straight
And Ewatched out for a A/Hsimple twist of Efate
EThey walked along by the old canal
Emaj7A little confused, I remember well
E7And stopped into a strange hotel with a Aneon burnin’ bright
AmHe felt the heat of the night Ehit him like a Asus2freight train
EMoving with a A/Hsimple twist of Efate

EA saxophone someplace far off played
Emaj7As she was walkin’ on by the arcade
As the E7light bust through a beat-up shade where Ahe was wakin’ up,
She dropped a Amcoin into the D9cup of a Eblind man at the Asus2gate
EAnd forgot about a A/Hsimple twist of Efate
EHe woke up, the room was bare
Emaj7He didn’t see her anywhere
E7He told himself he didn’t care, Apushed the window open wide
Felt an Amemptiness D9inside to which he Ejust could not Asus2relate
EBrought on by a A/Hsimple twist of Efate
EHe hears the ticking of the clocks
Emaj7And walks along with a parrot that talks
E7Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the Asailors all come in
Maybe he’ll Ampick her out D9again, how Elong must he Asus2wait
EOne more time for a A/Hsimple twist of fatEe
EPeople tell me it’s a sin
Emaj7To know and feel too much within
E7I still believe she was my twin, Abut I lost the ring
AmShe was born in D9spring, but EI was born too Alate
EBlame it on a A/Hsimple twist of fatEe
