I love Penelope scott so I wanted to get the
whole song written down
Capo moves around a bit during the song
[Intro]
B7
Em C It sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 That's what you said Em C I could live a thousand years and still not know G B7 just what you meant
[Chorus]
Em C It sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 What can I say? Em When I know that you would feel that way about C anything I play B7 Em I'll bet my songs all sound the same to you C G I'll bet they fuckin' do D7 Em I'll bet they sound the same because you've Am G only heard like two Em C I'll bet my shit all sounds the same to you D7 G I'll bet it fuckin' does Em Am D7 Given the circumstances, that does not amount
to much
[Verse 1]
Em C D7 How could you do it on my turf, in my own home, G to my own kids? C D7 G E About what's so absolutely mine C D7 And if you played me one of hers and it sounds G Em better than my own C D7 G I'd have to eat a gun and fuck off to thе sky C D7 And if it's worse than most of mine, well, G D7 G that still sucks ass too Am D7 And I am still fuckеd even if it's just the G same C D7 You would have a better chance of getting into G Em heaven if instead Am D7 G You nailed me drunk and screamed her name
[Chorus]
B7
Em C It sounds like a cabaret to you G B7 And I feel so small Em C And I'm sure you didn't mean anything by it G at all Em C D7 'Cause everything is just okay to you G It's in the past Em Am D7 I'll bet you don't remember that you even Em fuckin' asked
[Verse 2]
Em* C* But how dare you make the offer? G* B7* And I should've kicked your ass Em C Given you a look that turned your slimy bones G to ash Am D7 If it hadn't been so shocking, if it hadn't G hurt so bad Em Am D7 Perhaps I could've moved my shaking hands to Em hit you back
[Bridge]
Move capo to 1st fret
C
So, first of all, that I would still playfor you
Em Anything at all B7 Em And it's just a fucking cabaret to you G Suddenly I'm half as tall
[Verse 3]
B7 Em Goddamn it, you could call my house in bed
with her
C Just to say that she was better D7 And I'd still be half as mad about the G E whole affair C Tell me which of your ten fingers have been D7 how far in her mouth G That you prefer the way she pulls your Em fuckin' hair B7 C Goddamn it, all the branches all the fuckin' G implications C B7 Code and circuitry, inherent in your words C The nerve of it, the gall, I should just D7 G put you underground Am And leave your unintended insults, all your D7 Em shit code, for the worms
[Chorus]
Move capo to 3rd fret
B7 C It sounds like a cabaret to you, and what G can I do? Em B7 The sound of cities burning is a cabaret to you C And I'll bet it sounds the same to you, D7 G all of my shit Em Am D7 A nastier offense than if you'd gone after G my near-perfect tits C So don't play it for me D7 G Em I can't believe you took away one more song, Am don't play it for me D7 G You're a monster and you'll never live this Em Am down, so play it for me D7 B7 A cum shot to the face of God, don't play Em Am it for me D7 G You tell her I said she sounds great, but don't play it for me
[Chorus]
C Well, it was never a fucking game for you G Of course not Em And you're sure he's only sorry B7 'Cause he got caught C D7 G You should've been safe, he loved you first Em Am D7 Why would I fucking want him if he hurt G you worse?
[Post-Chorus]
B7
C Let's run away G We'll go to France Em Even though I never fucking learned a lick B7 of French C D7 I'll write you letters, I'll write you every G day Em Am And they will say whatever you would D7 G like for them to say
[Verse 4]
Em C How could he do it on our turf, in our D7 G own homes, to our own kids? C D7 G How could he paint everything so red? E C D7 And if he'd played me one of yours G Em I'd still be listening to it now C D7 And I would've cried my eyes right out of my G fucking head
[Chorus]
B7 C Well, it was never a cabaret for you, G of course not Em I mean, I think he told me your songs B7 lean a little more towards pop C D7 G You should've been safe, he loved you worse C D7 G How could I ever love him if he hurt you first?
[Post-Chorus]
B7
C Let's run away G We'll go to France Em Even though I never fucking learned a lick B7 of French C D7 I'll write you letters, I'll write you G every day Em Am D7 And they will say whatever you need them to G say
The End!!
