Dressing Up

From: Winston Campbell


        (words & music by Robert 
Smith)

I love this song, any time I hear 
it, I think of my friend Annita for 
some
reason (I have only known her a 
couple months).  Anyway, I am 
transcribing
the -Paris- version of the song.  It
 really does not make that much of a
difference since I have heard the 
original and it sounds exactly like
the -Paris- version.  I broke the 
song up into two riffs like these:


Riff 1 (the tantalizing keyboard 
riff):

   Bm             C       D      

        E5  Em

E --------2-3-2----------|------2-
B ----0-3-------3-0-0-0--|--0-3---
G -----------------------|--------
D -----------------------|--------
A -2---------------------|--------
E -----------------------|--------

E|3-2-------|--------------|-------
B|----3-0---|--------------|-------
G|----------|--------------|-------
D|----------|---2---0--2---|-5--2--
A|----------|--------------|-------
E|----------|-0------------|-------

E|-------| 
B|-------| 
G|-------| 
D|0--2---| 
A|-----2-| 
E|-------| 


Riff 2 (The spine-tingling duo 
notes):

   C                 Bm          

C                 Bm

E ---3---2--3---5---|-2--------|--
B ---5---3--5---7---|-3--------|--
G ------------------|----------|--
D ------------------|----------|--
A ------------------|----------|--
E ------------------|----------|--

E|-3---2--3---5---|-2--------| 
B|-5---3--5---7---|-3--------| 
G|----------------|----------| 
D|----------------|----------| 
A|----------------|----------| 
E|----------------|----------|

Those are basically the riffs with 
the chords on top.  The lyrics are:


{Riff 1}
Going under slowly
It never seems too late
Going under slow

{Riff 2}
Dressing up to kiss
Dressing up to touch your lips

{Riff 1}
(Dressing up, dressing up)
(Dressing up, dressing up)
I~m dressing up to dance all week
I~m dressing up to be all this

{Riff 2}
Dressing up to kiss
Dressing up to be all this

Bb               A
I could eat your face
Bb      A       (Riff 1)
I could eat all of you
Oh this night will never let me 
go...

Bb              A
Going under slowly
Bb              A
Never seems too late
Bb              A
Going under slowly
G         F              Em
There you pick me up again...


I usually play the chords like this:

    E A D G B E
    ----------- 

Bm  x 2 4 4 3 2
C   x 3 5 5 5 x
D   x 5 7 7 7 x
E5  x 7 9 9 x x
Em  0 2 2 0 0 0
Bb  6 8 8 7 x x
A   5 7 7 6 x x
G   3 2 0 0 3 3
F   1 3 3 2 1 1


(And that is all for now- Adios)
