[Intro] Eb Fm9 Bb Eb [Verse 1]
                             Fm9
You don't pass your time in limbo

                      Eb
Or hang out with the crowd

                Db           Ab
Sitting on the stoop like a little girl

              Fm7    Gm7      Bb  Bbsus4 Bb
Who took the wrong road into town

Eb                                  Fm9
   But you got that short cut way about you

                                 Eb
And no one's going to stare you down

               Db          Ab
You cook much better on a lower flame

               Fm7            Gm7       Bb  Bbsus4 Bb
You burn much better when the sun goes down
[Chorus]
                Eb
And heaven can wait

         Db/Eb         Csus4
But you ought to be a saint

C                        Fm7
  I got your very best intentions

 Gm7        Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
Helping me along

                       Eb
And if I ever fail to mention

Db/Eb                      Csus4
  You were an overnight sensation

C                   Fm7
  Well take it from me

    Gm7   Ab Bb
My baby's a saint

    Gm7   Ab Bb
My baby's a saint
[Verse 2]
Eb                            Fm9
   I believe you were a new arrival

                           Eb
On the fast train passing through

                 Db                Ab
And you traded in your luck for survival

            Fm7    Gm7     Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
To sweeten up the witch's brew

Eb                                  Fm9
   You had a better way of working magic

                          Eb
A little mystery in your eyes

                 Db            Ab
Instead of rolling over you remained the same

              Fm7        Gm7    Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
You took the whole world by surprise
[Chorus]
                Eb
And heaven can wait

         Db/Eb         Csus4
But you ought to be a saint

C                        Fm7
  I got your very best intentions

 Gm7        Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
Helping me along

                       Eb
And if I ever fail to mention

Db/Eb                      Csus4
  You were an overnight sensation

C                   Fm7
  Well take it from me

My baby's a saint

My baby's a saint
