Version 1

            Bbm7          C7 
It's dreamy weather we're on 
               Fm           F7 
You waved your crooked wand 
         Bbm7                    C7 			
Along an icy pond, with a frozen moon
             Fm         Bbm7 
A murder of silhouette crows, I saw 
                   C7 
in the tears on my face                       
Bbm7 C7           Fm 
And the skates on the pond, they spell "Alice" 
			
I'll disappear in your name, but you must wait for me 
Somewhere across the sea there's the wreck of a ship 
Your hair is like meadow-grass on the tide 
And the raindrops on my window 
and the ice in my drink 
                Bbm7    C7   Fm 
Baby, all I can think of is "Alice" 
			
Bbm7         C7         Fm                   F7 
Arithmetic, arithmetock, turn the hands back on the clock 
Bbm7               C7 
How does the ocean rock the boat? 
Fm                F7 
How did the razor find my throat? 
Bbm7                  C7 
The only strings that hold me here 
    Bbm7                  C7 
are tangled up around the pier 
			
And so a secret kiss brings madness with the bliss 
and I will think of this when I'm dead in my grave 
Set me adrift, and I'm lost over there 
And I must be insane, to go skating on your name 
                  Bbm7   C7
 and by tracing it twice
                    Bbm7 C7     Fm 
I fell through the ice of "Alice" 
			
(Solo) 
			
And so a secret kiss brings madness with the bliss 
and I will think of this when I'm dead in my grave 
Set me adrift, and I'm lost over there 
And I must be insane, to go skating on your name 
and by tracing it twice 
I fell through the ice of "Alice" 
Bbm7      C7    Fm 
There's only "Alice" 

Lyrics

It's dreamy weather we're on
You wave your crooked wand
Along an icy pond
With a frozen moon
A murder of silhouette crows I saw ...
And the tears on my face
and the skates on the pond they spell Alice
I'll disappear in your name
But you must wait for me
Somewhere beneath the sea
There's the wreck of a ship
Your hair is like meadow grass
On the tide
And the raindrops on my window
And the ice in my drink
Baby, all that I can think of is Alice
Arithmetic
Arithmetick
I turn the hands back on the clock
How does the ocean rock the boat
How did the razor find my throat
The only strings that hold me here
Are tangled up around the pier
And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the bliss
And I will think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
Set me adrift and
I'm lost over there
But I must be insane
To go skating on your name
And by tracing it twice
I fell through the ice
Of Alice There's onely Alice
