[D] Baby, let's get dressed up.
[G] I got two pairs of shoes.
[D] Darling, you look so beautiful [G] when your hair's all hung in jewels.
[Em] And sometimes I find it really hard to [A] choose [Em] between a pair of black and a pair of brown [A] shoes.
[D] When I'm high on bat wings, [G] up by the silvery moon,
[D] I think of a certain sad king [G] trapped in his golden room.
[Em] And I dream of a cold river on the [A] way.
[Em] Come and sweep that king into [A] this black and brown vein.
[D] Well, the water looks like jewelry [G] when it's coming out the spout.
[D] And nothing could make me feel better [G] than a wet kiss on the mouth.
[Em] Fake IDs and honey bees, [A] a jagged skyline of [Em] car keys.
I never knew a bird could fly [A] so low.

[D] Rub out the cat light.

[D] Red and white exit light.
[G] That's exited damage.
[Em] Why don't people think of who [A] they is?
Why [Em] don't you try and come and get me?
[A] Black and brown blue.
It's [D] raining triple sack into love.
[G] And the radio plays crazy train.
There's [D] a squadron balling the beehive.
[G] Hanging out in the rain.
[Em] When there's trouble, I don't like running.
[A] But I'm afraid I got more in common.
[Em] Who I was, who I [A] am becoming.
[D] When I go downtown, [G] I always wear a corduroy suit.
[D] Because it's made of a hundred gutters [Em] that [G] the rain can run right through.
[Em] But a lonely man can make a move [A] if it can't even bring him self [Em] to choose.
Between a pair of black and a pair of brown [A] shoes.
