C G F C G F C G F C
G F
Ah yeah
C G F C G F C G F C
Oh yeah
[Verse 1]
G
F C F
I'm up on the eleventh floor and I'm watching the cruisers
C G F C
below
G
F C F
He's down on the street and he's trying hard to pull
C G F C
sister Flo
G F C
Oh, my heart's in the basement,
F C G F C
my weekend 's at an alltime low
G F C
'Cause she's hoping to score,
F
so I can't see her letting him go
C E
Walk out of her heart, walk out of her mind,
A A
oh not her
[Chorus]
B D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
B D
In her frock coat and bippertybopperty hat
B C G F C
Oh God, I could do better than that
[Bridge]
G F
Oh yeah
[Verse 2]
C G F C G F C F
She's an oldtime ambassador of sweettalking,
C G F C
nightwalking games
G F C F
And she's known in the darkest clubs for pushing ahead of
C G F C
the dames
G F C F
If she says she can do it, then she can do it,
C G F C
she don't make false claims
G F C F
But she's a queen and such are queens that your laughter
E
is sucked in their brains
Now she's leading him on,
F C
and she'll lay him right down
Yes, she's leading him on,
F E
and she'll lay him right down
F
But it could have been me, yes,
C
it could have been me
E A A
Why did n't I say , why didn't I say, no, no,
no
[Chorus]
B D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
B D
In her frock coat and bippertybopperty hat
B C G F C
Oh God, I could do better than that
[Bridge]
G F C G F C
[Verse 3]
G F C F
So I lay down a while and I gaze at my hotel wall
C G F C G
Oh,
F C F
the cot is so cold it don't feel like no bed at all
C G F C G
Yeah,
F C F
I lay down a while and I look at my hotel wall
C G F C G F C
And he's down on the street,
F E
so I throw both his bags down the hall
F C
And I'm phoning a cab 'cause my stomach feels small
F E
There's a taste in my mouth and it's no taste at all
It could have been me,
F C
oh yeah it could have been me
E A A
Why didn't I say, why didn't I say, no, no,
no
[Chorus]
B D
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
B D
In her frock coat and bippertybopperty hat
[Outro]
Oh God,
B C G F C G F C
I could do better than that
G F C
Uoh
