'Cause she's hoping to score

So I can't see her letting him go

Walk out of her heart
 F               A
Walk out of her mind
 B                                D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
 B                                        D
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
 B
Oh God, I could do better than that

But she's a Queen, and such are queens
 F
That your laughter is sucked in their brains
 E                    
Now she's leading him on
 F
And she'll lay him right down
 E
Yes she's leading him on 
 F
Yes she'll lay him right down
 E
But it could have been me
 F
Yes, it could have been me
 E
Why didn't I say,
 F                A
why didn't I say, no, no, no

 B                                 D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat

Oh God, I could do better than that

So I lay down a while

And I gaze at my hotel wall

Oh the cot is so cold

It don't feel like no bed at all
C C G F
C C G F

Yeah I lay down a while

C C G F
C 
But he's down on the street
F
So I throw both his bags down the hall
 E
And I'm phoning a cab
 F
'Cause my stomach feels small
 E
There's a taste in my mouth
 F
And it's no taste at all

 E       
It could have been me
 F
Oh yeah, it could have been me
 E
Why didn't I say,
 E                A
Why didn't I say, no, no, no
 B                                 D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
 B                                        D
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat

Oh God, I could do better than that
