Chords

From Raindogs (1985) [Intro] Em Am B7 Em [Verse 1] Well ya play that tarantella
          Am
All the hounds will start to roar

    B7
The boys all go ta hell

             Em
And then the Cubans hit the floor
And they drive along the pipeline
     Am
They tango 'till they're sore

     B7
They take apart their nightmares

         Em
And they leave 'em by the door
[Chorus]
       Am
Let me fall out of the window

        B7
With confetti in my hair

Em
Deal out Jacks or better

     Am
On a blanket by the stairs

     B7
I’ll tell you all my secrets

      Em
But I lie about my past

   Am             B7           Em
So send me off to bed for ever more
[Verse 2] Make sure they play my theme song
        Am
I guess daisies will have to do

     B7
Just get me to New Orleans

          Em
And paint shadows on the pews
Turn the spit on that pig
             Am
And kick the drum and let me down

       B7
Put my clarinet beneath my bed

     Em
Till I get back in town
[Chorus]
       Am
Let me fall out of the window

        B7
With confetti in my hair

Em
Deal out Jacks or better

     Am
On a blanket by the stairs

     B7
I’ll tell you all my secrets

      Em
But I lie about my past

   Am             B7           Em
So send me off to bed for ever more
[Verse 3] Just make sure she's all in calico
       Am
In the color of a doll

         B7
Wave the flag on Cadillac day

      Em
And a skillet on the wall
Cut me a switch
             Am
Or hold your breath till the sun goes down

         B7
Write my name on the hood

           Em
Send me off to another town
[Chorus]
       Am
Let me fall out of the window

        B7
With confetti in my hair

Em
Deal out Jacks or better

     Am
On a blanket by the stairs

     B7
I’ll tell you all my secrets

      Em
But I lie about my past

   Am             B7           Em
So send me off to bed for ever more
