Netherlands

C   Cm   G  C  Cm  G

Am                              C
Worn down brick and cobblestone
                               G
Laid out in herringbone in the square
Am
Old man sitting on a milk crate
         C                             G
Playing a squeezebox for spare change
                             D
People pass by like he’s not there

        C                 D              G
Oh, but all his Old World waltzes seem to be
           Em
In a minor key
     C            Cm
To a haunted man
            G           C Cm G
Lost in the Netherlands

Am                             C
Sidewalk bar on a Sunday night
                                           G
Watching girls in skirts on bikes come and go
        Am
Here’s around for the one with the jonquil hair
     C                                                   G
And another for the things I might have dared when I was younger
            D
If I’d only known

      C                   D        G
Oh, tonight it seems like every memory
              Em
Is in a minor key
     C            Cm
To a haunted man
            G           C Cm G
Lost in the Netherlands

Am                               C
From a stained glass window pane
                                              G
Of an old church black with acid rain comes a light
Am
Candles flicker at the Virgin’s feet
      C                                 G
And I want so badly to believe that someone
                  D
Has got my back tonight

        C                   D            G
Oh, but all my prayers they fall so hollowly
               Em
No one answers me
        C           Cm
And I’m gone again
            G           C Cm G
Lost in the Netherlands
