Golden Gate Jumpers

A# A7 D G F A# F7

Thick fog rolls in waves, On the Golden Gate

A# A7 D7 G F F7

I was checking my watch with 7 minutes in my shift

When I spot a black skirt on the rail

Straddling the bar like it's a quater a ride

She's scared to jump but terrified to stay

Walk to her slow extend my hand with a smile and say

D D#

"Ma'am how was your day?

D D#

Keep your eyes on my face

G C

I want to help you now, if you'll let me"

She's stratled, I look forward

Wrap my arms 'round her legs

Pull her down to the sidewalk

We're both heaving for air and I say

Bb Bb B

"Ma'am how was your day?

Bb Bb G

Keep your eyes on my face

G GC G7

I want to help you now, if you'll let me"

(Outro:)

C Bm G

Most folks think they'll hit the surface and never, feel no pain

C Bm G

Water pulls you under back to the womb once again

Bodies float to the shore

Bloated purple and blue

If sharks won't get you first

Crabs will have their way with you
