this masterpiece, surprisingly enough is unreleased. it was recorded for "One Hand Clapping", the unreleased documentary about PM & Wings and it was recorded in 1974 in demo form for Frank Sinatra. A short version was also recorded during the "Get Back" sessions. A snippet is availible on "McCartney" under the title "Glasses" and a version is availible on the unreleased DVD and on the bootleg album "Good Times Comin'" did i miss anything? anyway... (McCartney) (INTRO):
D                  Bm
Girls it's been my pleasure

   D            Am7    D
To know quite a lot of you

    Am7
And in the main 

                         D
You're pretty sane, it's true

                Am7
But there are a few who do

                               D
The duty to do too beautiful a job

   Am7                   D
It isn't quite what they planned

    Am7                D
The man gets the upper hand

     Am7              D
He's takin' her for a ride

Am7           D
I call it... Suicide
(VERSE 1):
   D        Am7      Bm
If when she tries to run away

       D                   D
And he calls her back, she comes

D            Am7        Bm
If there's a next time, he's ok

            D              D
Cause she's under both his thumbs

Bm              Am7
She limps along to his side

                  D
Singing a song of ruined life
(CHORUS):
D                  Am7
Daddy says nothin' doin'

Am7  D
Ah--- 

  D           D        
I call it... Suicide
(VERSE 2):
D            Am7     Bm
She loves to ride in big parades

       D               D
But he wouldn't so she won't

D            Am7     Bm
She needs at least a dozen lays

       D              D
But if he says no she don't

Bm            Am7
He wishes she knew his sign

                         D
Soon there'll be trouble brewin' ah---
(REPEAT CHORUS) (BRIDGE):
D  Bm    Am7      D
Suicide, she's commitin' it

D  Bm    Am7      D
Suicide, he's not gettin' it

D  Bm    Am7    D          D
Suicide, it's a quittin' a day
(INSTRUMENTAL VERSE W/WORDLESS VOCAL)
Bm              Am7
She limps along to his side

                  D
Singing a song of ruined life
(REPEAT CHORUS) (REPEAT BRIDGE)
