Verse 1

F Dm        C  F       Dm                   C
Fifteen keys,  fifteen keys hang on a chain
    F Dm            C    F        Dm                      C
The chain is joined, the chain is joined and forms a ring
    F Dm       C    F       Dm                C
The ring is in, the ring is in a woman's hand
      F Dm       C      F       Dm                  C
She's walking on, she's walking on the dusty ground

Chorus 1

          D                   Em
The dusty ground's a dead-end track
              F#m             G
The neighbors won't be coming back
        D           Em
Fifteen gardens overgrown
        F#m            G
Fifteen houses falling down

    F Dm        C    F       Dm                       C
The woman's old, the woman's old and dressed in black
    F Dm            C    F         Dm                    C
She keeps her hands, she keeps her hands behind her back
    F Dm     C   F    Dm                      C
Imagine what, imagine what her eyes have seen
   F Dm        C   F       Dm                  C
We ask but she, we ask but she won't let us in

Chorus 2

         D             Em
A key so simple and so small
           F#m               G
How can it mean no chance at all?
         D             Em
A key, a promise, or a wish
           F#m               G
How can it mean such hopelessness?
