Lady Vanilla
 
The chords as far as I know are:
Chorus:  G  G  F  C (x3)...G  G  F  G  F  G  F  G
Verses:  G  G  F  F  G  G  F  F  G  G  F  F  Em  C  F

You came into the room and sat down in a chair.
Some magic shone about you and there was stardust in the air.
The sun came in the window just to shine upon your table;
I felt a sudden need to cry, but found I was not able.
 
So I enter your dominion with a weak a tender eye
and all too soon I'm drifting with your aura floating by.
And then I am a planet, or a dust mote with a friend
and I'm looking in your eyes so deep, they never seem to end.
 
I can hang my head down with the saddest willow,
I can taste the wind that makes the boat's sail billow,
I can lay my head down on a soft, white pillow,
but I can't have a taste of Lady Vanilla.
 
You silently respond to me as I go swimming by
and I keep seeing circles, no matter what I try.
Vanilla's made of magic; my dreams with it are laced,
but it's dark as thick molasses and it's bitter to the taste.
Then suddenly you leave the room and I'm spinning in your wake
and I can't swim and I can't drown in your vanilla lake.
Come back and make the sun shine in, come back and make me smile,
if not for one forever, for just a million whiles.
 
 

 
That's pretty much it.  Hope that helps.  If anything's unclear or I 
forgot something due to my early morning fuzziness, feel free to 
write back and say "yo Ed--wassup with this??" A waitress (eventually 
manager, I should say) at this pizza joint had very fair skin, 
just shy of pale, and upon discussion, we labelled it "vanilla."  
I would frequently sing as I did the dishes for what seemed like 
hours at the end of the night, making up silly songs about coworkers, 
and that is precisely where Lady Vanilla was born.  
Thanks for your interest.
 
Cheers,
Ed
