Intro


B♭m


Verse i

I was just thirty-four years old and I was still
B♭mWandering in a haze
A♭sus4I was wondering why eveA♭ryone I met seemed like they were
F♯sus4Lost in a maze                     F♯
E♭sus4I don't know whyE♭ I thought I should have some kind of
B♭mDivine right to the blues
A♭sus4It's sympathy not tears peA♭ople need when they're the
F♯sus4Front Page sad news.               F♯
E♭sus4The incense burE♭ned away and the
B♭Stench began to rise
E♭maj7And lovers now estranged avoided
B♭Catching each others' eyes

E♭maj7


Pre-chorus i

And girls who lost their children cursed the
Fmaj7Men who fit the coil     Cmaj7
Fmaj7And men not fit Cmaj7for marriage took their
Fmaj7Refuge in the oil   Cmaj7
Fmaj7No-one respectCmaj7s the flame quite like the
Gmaj7Fool who's badly burDmaj7ned
Gmaj7>From all this yoDmaj7u'd imagine that there
Gmaj7Must be something leaDmaj7rned . . .

C11


Chorus i

Slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those
CSlit skirts, and I don't ever wear no
FRipped shirts, can't pretend that growing older
Am7Never hurts.
B♭Knee-pants, Jeanie never wears those
CKnee-pants, have to be so drunk to try a
FNew dance, so afraid of every little
Am7Romance . . .
B♭Slit skirts, slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those
DSlit skirts, slit skirts, she wouldn't dare in those
BmSlit skirts, slit skirts, wouldn't be seen dead in those
Gmaj7Slit skirts
C11Romance, romance, why aren't we thinking up
DRomance?  Why can't we drink it up
BmTrue-heart romance, just need a brief new little
Gmaj7Romance . . .

C11



Verse ii

Let me tell you some more about myself, you know I'm sitting at home
just now.
The big events of the day have passed and the late TV shows have come
on.
I'm number one on the home team, but I still feel unfulfilled. A
silent voice
in a broken heart complains that I'm unskilled. And I know that when
she
thinks of me, she thinks of me as him, but unlike me she don't workout
her
frustrations in the gym.

Recriminations fester and the past can never change, a woman's
expectations
run from both ends of the range.

Once she walked with untamed lovers face between her legs,
Now he's cooled and stifled and it's she who has to beg...

[Repeat VERSE I, PRE-CHORUS I & CHORUS I]
