You Pretty Little Thing

         G
theres a hole in my head
                      Em
where the lines you read
Em
melt into a bowl
                         C
and treat me a like a fool


[Verse 2]
     G
they froth at the mouths
                Em
and call me a clown
     Em
for jumping through their hoops
                       C
and standing on their shoes


[Chorus]
      G           C
but don't be sad
      G       Em
it’ll never last
        G                   C
and don't be sad      OOOOO
   G       Em     C
it’ll never last


[Verse 3]
               G
until you throw away your shoes
Continues after the ad
              Am  Em
and buy expensive boots
   Em
to walk straight through the scene
                                   C
smash snails to smithereens


[Verse 4]
       G
you call your love a lie
                Em
a choke of desire
       Em
with a brain your couldn't beat
                          C
and hands as soft as feet


[Chorus]
      G           C
but don't be sad
      G       Em
it’ll never last
        G                   C
and don't be sad      OOOOO
 G       Em        C
it’ll never last


[Verse 5]
      Em   Bb   A                
until you run and get the kids to
          C                G
 lick the bottoms of their lips
                               Em
and they stare straight at the sun
             Am            G
and down the barrel of the gun
             Em             Am
you point it up you point it down
  C
family all around
G             D
you never lied
             Em
watch your back
                       C
they've got you by the neck
          C
its never fair
          Am
its never fair
              G             Em
to see their smiles everywhere
         Em
but your face looks like a clowns
G
paint it up and paint it down
G
pity, piercing pray
     G
each morning of each day
        Em
its the last song left to sing
    A
you pretty little thing.
