[Verse 1]
G            F
You met Judy in the nineties
G                     D   G
She threw parties for magazines
G               F
For a while she had a roommate
G                     D     G
But that roommate was never seen

[Bridge]
Cm
Who knew she could be so reckless?
G                  Em
Who knew you could be so wrong?
Cm                            Am   Bb  D
Dancing in her kitchen for so long

[Verse 2]
G                F
Ten years on and something's shifted
G               D          G
Same apartment, roommate's gone
G                 F
Putting down that torch you lifted
G                 D      G
Back to portraits poorly drawn

[Verse 3]
G             F
Judy lies but you believe her
G                 D        G
She's the storm before the calm
G           F
Judy is the great deceiver
G            D    G
Judy is your Viet Nam
G
Judy is your Viet Nam
