D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
Take your tiny feet out of your mother's shoes | |||
F#m Bm Em7 A7 | |||
Or there is going to be a terrible scene | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
It's not just the lipstick drawn on crooked when they | |||
F#m Bm | |||
Find how wicked we are | |||
F# F#dim G | |||
How wicked we have been | |||
B Em | |||
How I've been tempted | |||
G D/A A G | |||
How you tripped at every step | |||
Bm G Bm | |||
You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step | |||
G F#m A/E G | |||
Oh, how you tripped at every step | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
There's a merry tune that starts in "I" and ends | |||
F#m Bm Em7 A7 | |||
in "You", like many famous pop songs do | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
You would sing along with little tell-tale staggers | |||
F#m Bm | |||
While balancing on daggers | |||
F# F#dim G | |||
Though they were killing you | |||
B Em | |||
You looked so deadly | |||
G D/A A G | |||
As you tripped at every step | |||
Bm G Bm | |||
You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step | |||
G F#m A/E G | |||
Oh, as you tripped at every step | |||
F Gm7 | |||
And I would run to catch you | |||
Eb6 D7 | |||
Anytime you call | |||
Gm7 | |||
Only you drank that potion | |||
Eb7 | |||
And went out of control | |||
F Gm7 | |||
There's nothing to stop you | |||
Eb6 D7 | |||
So how can you fall | |||
G Em | |||
Let me take your hand | |||
Eb/Bb A/C# | |||
Put down that frying pan | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
Darkness would become me, underneath the table | |||
F#m Bm Em7 A7 | |||
As the fury raged around the house | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
Your despairing tread was angry and unstable | |||
F#m Bm | |||
You never suspected | |||
F# F#dim G | |||
Just as that cartoon mouse | |||
B Em | |||
Went undetected | |||
G D/A A G | |||
So you tripped at every step | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
In another world of gin and cigarettes | |||
F#m Bm Em7 A7 | |||
Those cocktail cabinets put mud in your eye | |||
D Bm/F# G D/A | |||
Maybe that is why you find it hard to see me | |||
F#m Bm | |||
And if you don't believe me | |||
F# F#dim G | |||
Before you start to cry | |||
B Em | |||
"Don't ever leave me." | |||
G D/A A G | |||
As you start to lose your grip | |||
G D/A A G | |||
You will stumble and you slip | |||
G D/A A G | |||
As you tripped at every step | |||
Bm G Bm | |||
You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step | |||
G D/A A G | |||
Oh, as you tripped at every step | |||
