Standard (EADGBE)

Take your tiny feet out of your mother?s shoes

Or there?s is going to be a terrible scene

It?s not just a lipstick drawn on crooked when they

Find how wicked we are

How wicked we have been

How I?ve been tempted

How you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

Oh, how you tripped at every step

There?s a merry tune that starts in "I" and ends

In "You", like many famous pop songs do

You would sing along with little tell-tale staggers

While balancing on daggers

Thou they were killing you

You looked so deadly

As you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

Oh, how you tripped at every step

And I would try to catch you anytime you call

Only you drank that potion and went out of control

There?s nothing to stop you so how can you fall

Let me take your hand

Put down that frying pan

Darkness would become me, underneath the table

As the fury raged around the house

Your despairing tread was angry and unstable

You never suspected

Just as this cartoon mouse

Went undetected

As you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

Oh, how you tripped at every step

In another world of gin and cigarettes

Those cocktail cabinets put mud in your eye

Maybe that is why you find it hard to see me

And if you don?t believe me

Before you start to cry

"Don?t eve leave me."

As you tripped at every step

You tripped at every step, you tripped at every step

Oh, how you tripped at every step

Original tune is in D-Major!
