The Mendoza Line — Aspect Of An Old Maid

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

C
Chastised and abraded;
F
So windswept and faded.
C                             G
She wore the aspect of an old maid.

              Am
Well, you're still taking lovers;
         F
You take some further than others.
                C
I still can not believe how I saw behind your blinded, blotted eyes,
                G
But I could not get beneath your covers.

              Am
I've seen the old cabaret
         F
With the fetish's tailor.
               C
I've seen the morbid cachet
      G
Of significant failure.

      Am                                         F
And I know this means so much more to me than it does to you,
    Am                                   F                     G
But meet me back in room 417 we've still got work to do.

     C                                                           F
Hey, baby, I know you had that baby before you were really ready to,
             C
Because I've seen you hold it so timid and unsteady, 
         G
and I've seen the fear when it looks at you.

         Am
And I've seen so much of your body,
                F
And, though you were just under 30,
          C                                        G
I swore I saw on your face the aspect of an old maid.

       Am
And so call on your tyrant director,
        F
Let his cruel will be dispersed,
            C
Tell all my deeds to the inspector;
     G
I am ready for the worst.

         Am                                              F                          G
All that hubcap stealing, marijuana dealing, high sex crimes and electric cars.

     C
Hey painting in the crosshairs, lets you rearrange the deck chairs.
           F
Though you swoon and you sway, you still don't belong here.
         C
And it's not as if I ever really told you that I cared,
                  G
But you know that even if I did,
You still would not be spared.

           Am
And you're still taking long drives;
              F
Even the end designing needs of why.
           C
Oh it's so hard to know just how to dress
        G
For the last days of our lives.

              Am
I've seen the whole three act play.
              F
I've seen the poster and the trailer.
        C
I never thought i'd have to pay
                       G
This much attention to one girl just to nail her.

           Am
Down as to what it was,
             F                      C
She wore the aspect of an old maid.
