[Verse 1]
C
I'm up on the eleventh floor
F C G F C G F
And I'm watching the cruisers below
C
He's down on the street
F C G F C G F
And he's trying hard to pull sister Flo
C
My heart's in the basement
F C G F C G F
My weekend's at an all time low
C
'Cause she's hoping to score
F
So I can't see her letting him go
C E
Walk out of her heart
A
Walk out of her mind... Oh no not her.
[Chorus]
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
C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F |
Oh Yeh.
[Verse 2]
C
She's an old-time ambassador
F C G F C G F
Of sweet talking, night walking games
C
And she's known in the darkest clubs
F C G F C G F
For pushing ahead of the dames
C
If she says she can do it
F C G F C G F
Then she can do it, she don't make false claims
C
But she's a Queen, and such are queens
F E
That your laughter is sucked in their brains
[Bridge 1]
F
Now she's leading him on
C
And she'll lay him right down
F
Yes she's leading him on
E
Yes she'll lay him right down
F
But it could have been me
C
Yes, it could have been me
E
Why didn't I say,
A
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 bipperty-bopperty hat
B
Oh God, I could do better than that
C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F |
Oh Yeh.
[Verse 3]
C
So I lay down a while
F C G F C G F
And I gaze at my hotel wall
C
Oh the cot is so cold
F C G F C G F
It don't feel like no bed at all
C
Yeah I lay down a while
F C G F C G F
And I look at my hotel wall
C
But he's down on the street
F E
So I throw both his bags down the hall
[Bridge 2]
F
And I'm phoning a cab
C
'Cause my stomach feels small
F
There's a taste in my mouth
E
And it's no taste at all
F
It could have been me
C
Oh yeah, it could have been me
E
Why didn't I say,
A
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 bipperty-bopperty hat
B
Oh God, I could do better than (that.)
C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F |
That._______ You Betcha,
C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F | C G F |
Oh Yeh. Uh-huh.
