[Verse]
C7                  
Standing in the door
            F7      
Of the Pink Flamingo
C         C7  C    F
Crying in the rain ■
C7               F7   G7  
It was a kind of soso love
        C7             
And I'm gonna make sure
C                     
It never happens again
             F7       
You and I it had to be
    C                    Am   F
The standing joke of the year ■


[Chorus]
C                F     
You were a sleep around
F               
A lost and found
C7             C   F7   F C
And not for me ■ I fear ■ ■
F    G    C  F
Whoa ■ oh oh ■


[Verse]
G7 C                      
■  I tried to make it work
F        G             
You in a cocktail skirt
    C           
And me in a suit
        F              G
Well it just wasn't me ■
C                          
You're used to wearing less
F            G            
And now your life's a mess
C               F    G
So insecure you seem ■
C                           
I put up with all the scenes
F               G    
And this is one scene
       C                     F  
That's going to be played my way
G C         Am        Em
■ Take your hands off me

Take a look at my face
        F    G   
For the last time

■ Under the deep red light
F             G      C            F
I can see the makeup sliding down ■
G C              
■ Hey little girl
                G7     
You will always make up
C               
So take off that
F          G    
Unbecoming frown
C                 
What about me well
F         G      
I'll find someone
C                     
That's not going cheap
       F    
In the sales
G C                      
■ A nice little housewife
F                G          
Who'll give me a steady life
    C                F       G    
And won't keep going off the rails

Take a look at my face
        F    G   
For the last time
C               
I never knew you
Am               
You never knew me
