[Intro]

Em chordEm D chordD C chordC B chordB
Em chordEm D chordD C chordC B chordB


[Verse]

Em chordEm D chordD C chordC
You got the lights on in the afternoon
B chordB Em chordEm
And the nights are drawn out long
D chordD C chordC
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom
B chordB Em chordEm
With a cough drop coloured tongue
D chordD C chordC
You were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
B chordB Em chordEm
And I thought you might be mine

D chordD C chordC
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
B chordB
In the right place and time


[Chorus]

Em chordEm D chordD
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C chordC B chordB
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em chordEm D chordD
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C chordC B chordB
And your knee socks


[Verse]

Em chordEm D chordD C chordC
Well you cured my January blues,
B chordB Em chordEm
yeah you made it all alright
D chordD C chordC
I got a feeling I might've lit the very fuse
B chordB Em chordEm
that you were trying not to light
D chordD C chordC
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
B chordB Em chordEm
Cause I had nothing to lose
D chordD C chordC
When the Winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true
B chordB
Ain't it funny what you'll do?


[Chorus]

Em chordEm D chordD
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C chordC B chordB
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em chordEm D chordD
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C chordC B chordB
And your knee socks


[Bridge]

C chordC D chordD
In late afternoon, the ghost in your room
Em chordEm
That you always thought didn't approve of you knocking boots
C chordC B chordB
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot
Em chordEm
By the scruff of your knee socks

Em chordEm
You and me could've been a team
Each had a half of a king-and-queen seat
Like the beginning of Mean Streets you could Be My Baby

(The zeros lined up but the number's blocked)
(When you've come undone)


[Chorus]

Em chordEm D chordD
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C chordC B chordB
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em chordEm D chordD
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C chordC B chordB
And your knee socks

About this song: Knee Socks

Perhaps the album’s best song is tucked away just before it ends. Everything about this track is sexy…from the bass drum and simple guitar riff as it opens, to the imagery conjured up by a line like “When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste… And your knee socks". And we’re bouncing as the images in Alex’s head come together in a parting crescendo. Read more on Last.fm.
