  When I think of those East End lights

  Muggy nights

    G/B                   F/A              C
The curtains drawn in the little room down stairs

F                           G
Prima Donna lord you really should have been there

F                       G                   C
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair

         Cm7
And it's one more beer

                     A7
And I don't hear you anymore

      C
We've all gone crazy lately

   A/C#                                G/D
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor

    G/B    C                G/B
You nearly had me roped and tied

C            A7/C#
Altar-bound, hypnotized

      G/D
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear

         A7
You're a butterfly

    C
And butterflies are free to fly

A7/C#     G/D       B7  C

  I never realized the passing hours

C
   Of evening showers

  G/B                F/A               C
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dre-eams

    F                         G
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene

F               G               C
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen

It's four o'clock in the morning

Damn it listen to me good

    C
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
