F#m G D
Stevie was a connoisseur
F#m G D
Everybody wanted to be her
F#m G D D/C# Bm
She chose her friends as carefully as she chose her words
D Bm A
She was so sure about it all
[Verse]
F#m G D
Oh, Stevie was a hero once
F#m G D
Had all the things I'd never touched
F#m G D D/C# Bm
She wrote in sterling silver with a ballpoint pen
D Bm A
Cold blooded chameleon
[Chorus]
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
You're a god to me
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
You're a god to me
[Verse]
F#m G D
Stevie was an ice maiden
F#m G D
Not sure really worth saving
F#m G D D/C# Bm
Alcatraz has nothing on her after all this time
D Bm A
Still a dead-end search behind those eyes
[Verse]
F#m G D
Oh, Stevie where are you going to
F#m G D
Oh, you're as tight lipped as a bottle, all screwed
F#m G D D/C# Bm
If I had the chance to peer inside your mind
D Bm A
Give up your mystery, oh, I'd think twice
[Chorus]
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
You're a god to me
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
You're a god to me

G D
Tea-leaves in the cup, you're a good friend of mine
G D
How the sober are thirsty for the sweet wine
G D Am
Now that Stevie has locked her keys in her mind
G D Am
Got to open up, lay herself on the line (lay herself on the line)
G D Am
Tea-leaves in the cup, you're a good friend of mine
G D Am
How the sober are thirsty for the sweet wine
G D Am
Now that Stevie has locked her keys in her mind (in her mind)
G D Am
Got to open up, lay herself on the line (lay herself on the line)
G D Am
Tea-leaves in the cup, you're a good friend of mine
G D
How the sober are thirsty for the sweet wine
[Chorus]
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
You're a god to me
Bm A G
Oh, Ste-e-vie,
Bm A D
oh, Ste-e-vie
Bm A G
Why can't you see
Bm A D
Oh, give in to me
