Knee Socks Chords & Lyrics by Arctic Monkeys
Knee Socks
guitar chords lyrics
Intro
Em D C B X2
Em D C
You got the lights on in the afternoon
B Em
And the nights are drawn out long
D C
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom
B Em
With a cough drop coloured tongue
D C
You were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
B Em
And I thought you might be mine
D C
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
B
In the right place and time
(Chorus)
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
Em D C
Well you cured my January blues,
B Em
yeah you made it all alright
D C
I got a feeling I might've lit the very fuse
B Em
that you were trying not to light
D C
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
B Em
Cause I had nothing to lose
D C
When the Winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true
B
Ain't it funny what you'll do?
(Chorus)
Em D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
(Bridge)
C D
In late afternoon, the ghost in your room
Em
That you always thought didn't approve of you knocking boots
C B
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot
Em
By the scruff of your knee socks
Em
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 D
When the zeros line up on the twentyfour hour clock
C B
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
Em D
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
C B
And your knee socks
