Dm
She's writing, she's writing
Dm
She's writing a novel
Bb
She writing, she's weaving
Bb
Conceiving a plot
C
It quickens, it thickens
C
You can't put it down now
Dm
It takes you, it shakes you
Dm
It makes you lose your thought

Dm
But you're caught in your own glory
Bb
You are believing your own stories

C
Writing your own headlines
C
Ignoring your own deadlines
Dm
But now you've gotta write that all again

C               F
You think she's an open book
  Bb             C      C
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
C               F
You think she's an open book
Bb     
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? do you?

Trumpet solo 10 bar

Dm
You want her, confront her
Dm
Just open your window
Bb
Unbold it unlock it
Bb
Unfasten your latch
C
You want it, confront it
C
Just open your window
Dm
All you really have to do is ask
Dm
But you're caught on your glory
Bb
You are believing your own stories

C
Timing your contractions
C
Inventing small contraptions
Dm
That roll across your polished hard wood floors

C               F
You think she's an open book
Bb               C     C
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
C               F
You think she's an open book
Bb                        
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? do you?

( C  F  Bb  C )

C               F
You think she's an open book
Bb                      
But you don't know which page to turn to, do you?
Do you? do you?
