Anastasia

Intro: G

G                              Am
Anastasia left a kiss on the mirror
C                               G
And a couple of condoms by the bed
G                               Am
I tried to find her on her old number
C                               G
But I just got her boyfriend instead

         Am        G
Oh it's hard, so hard
        Am        C         G
When Anastasia changes her mind


G                                 Am
So I went back to working the quinellas
C                             G
I collected three times in a row
G                                            Am
I swear it must have been that kiss on the mirror
C                                                      G
That I'd touch with my lips just for luck each time I'd go

          Am        G
Oh it's hard, very hard
        Am        C         G
When Anastasia changes her mind


G                                Am
Now the numbers were my daily devotion
C                                 G
I was stashing big bills in the floor
G                                Am
Then one night at my door a commotion
C                          G
Anastasia-at some ungodly hour!
G                              Am
I said 'Baby can I fix you a coffee
C                               G
And tomorrow let me buy you a dress
G                              Am
Since you've been gone I got lucky'
C                                  G
She just nodded her head and said 'I guess'


          Am              G
Oh it's hard, yeah it's hard
        Am        C        G
When Anastasia changes her mind


       G                                Am
Now 'Stacey' takes the crumbs from the table
      C                         G
And feeds them out back to the birds
G                                Am
Me, I can't even pick the daily double
         C                       G
Since that kiss on the mirror disappeared
            Am            G
Yeah it's hard, ain't it hard
         Am       C         G
