Capo 1
Dm Dm Dm Gm A (x2)
Dm
I am alive,
Am
I am alive,
A#
And that is the best that I can do.
Dm
You told me you lied,
Am
You swore you were mine,
A#
I took you back a thousand times.
Dm
Talk of the town,
Am
You've been around,
A#
If he is the man you want, then go.
A#
But tonight we'll leave
C A#
All our lovers behind,
C A#
And try to live a quiet life.
C A# C C#
My love has dressed me like a clown.
Dm Dm Dm Gm A (x2)
Dm
You are an ass,
Am
A snake in the grass,
A#
Vanity seeps from out your pores.
Dm
And baby it's time
Am
To pay for my crime,
A#
Nothing I say can make you mine.
Dm
You either sing it in key,
Am
Or run into me.
A#
I can fake it as good as you.

A#
But tonight we'll leave
C A#
All our stupid songs,
C A#
We'll drive, and reach the hills by dawn.
C A# C C#
My love has dressed me like a clown.

Margot, you dress me like a clown.
A#
Tonight we'll drink
C A#
Into an early grave.
C A#
We'll laugh, but we will never be saved.

Someone has dressed us all like clowns.
Dm Am A# A# (x2)
Dm
Darling it's sin,
Am
Where do I begin?
A#
Putting the contact lenses in.
Dm
You say the lights
Am
Scurry like mice,
A#
Reflecting the streets in your blue eyes.
Dm
Out on the roof,
Am
Waiting for love,
A#
Turn me around and lock me up.
Dm
Baby you are an ass,
Am
A snake in the grass,
A#
Vanity oozes out your pores.
Dm
Oooh, ooooh.
Am A#
Oooh, ooooh.
Dm
Oooh, ooooh.
Am A#
Oooh, ooooh.
