intro: D D'

They
sat together in the park
D'
As
the evening sky grew dark,
D7
She
looked at him and he felt a spark
G Gm
tingle
to his bones.
Gm
'Twas
then he felt alone
D A
G
and
wished that he'd gone straight
D A D
And
watched out for a simple twist of
fate.
They
walked along by the old canal
A
little confused, I remember well
And
stopped into a strange hotel
with
a neon burnin' bright.
He
felt the heat of the night
hit
him like a freight train
Moving
with a simple twist of fate.
A
saxophone someplace far off played
As
she was walkin' by the arcade.
As
the light bust through a beat-up shade
where
he was wakin' up,
She
dropped a coin into the cup
of
a blind man at the gate
And
forgot about a simple twist of fate.
He
woke up, the room was bare
He
didn't see her anywhere.
He
told himself he didn't care,
pushed
the window open wide,
Felt
an emptiness inside
to
which he just could not relate
Brought
on by a simple twist of fate.
He
hears the ticking of the clocks
And
walks along with a parrot that talks,
Hunts
her down by the waterfront docks
where
the sailers all come in.
Maybe
she'll pick him out again,
how
long must he wait
Once
more for a simple twist of fate.
People
tell me it's a sin
To
know and feel too much within.
I
still believe she was my twin,
but
I lost the ring.
She
was born in spring,
but
I was born too late
Blame
it on a simple twist of fate.
