INTRO:  Fig A 2x

              A
Francine, the first time I saw you
D               A  Asus  A
   I'll never forget
        D
Ah, you shone like the silvery moon
                      A  Asus  A
On that night that we met
        E
But the warmth you reflected
                        A      Asus  A    + Fig. A
Was a cheap as your cigarette

         A
The dark side of your soul
  D                          A     Asus  A
Appealed to the dark side of mine
       D
When I made myself think you were
                    A     Asus   A
Part of some holy design
        E                                           A  
But the light that I saw in your eyes was a vacancy sign

  D
I thought you were helpless / I thought you were needy
  A                           E
I thought I could show you the sun
            A         D
Ah, but the closer we got
    A         E    F#m
The more your eyes shut
    E                            A   Asus  A  + Fig. A
Francine, you're as dead as they come

I tried in darkness and in shadow
D               A     Asus A
   To recover my youth
            D
Yeah baby I lied and I schemed and connived 
                          A   Asus  A
Until I couldn't tell the truth
     E
Ah I gave you my soul 
                         A   Asus  A  
For a taste of forbidden fruit

  D
I thought you were helpless / I thought you were needy
  A                           E
I thought I could show you the sun
            A         D
Ah, but the closer we got
    A         E    F#m
The more your eyes shut
    E                            A   Asus  A  + Fig. A
Francine, you're as dead as they come

Francine, the first time I saw you
D               A  Asus  A
   I'll never forget
      D
I got wounds to remind me
           A   Asus  A
And many a debt
         E                                        A     Asus  A  + Fig. A
And your image is hung in my conscience with many regrets

              A
And there's a moon hanging high
       D                  A    Asus  A
Like a spoon in the sky tonight
                D
Yeah, there's a moon hanging high
                          A   Asus  A
Like a spoon in the sky tonight
          E
And it's amazing how much you can see
                A 
By it's silvery light

  D
I thought you were helpless / I thought you were needy
  A                           E
I thought I could show you the sun
            A         D
Ah, but the closer we got
    A         E    F#m
The more your eyes shut
    E                            A
Francine, you're as dead as they come
              A         D
Yeah baby the closer we got
    A         E    F#m
The more your eyes shut
    E                            A   Asus  A  + Fig. A
