[TEXT:]
[F]
(1)The guilty undertaker sighs
[Ami]
The lonesome organ grinder cries
[Dmi]
The silver saxophones say
[C]
I should refuse you
[Bb]
(2)The cracked bells and washed-out horns
[C]
Blow into my face with scorn
[Dmi]
But it's not that way
[C]
I wasn't born to lose you
[F] [Ami]
(R)I want you, I want you
[Dmi] [C]
I want you so bad
[F]
Honey, I want you
[F]
(3)The drunken politician leaps
[Ami]
Upon the street where mothers weep
[Dmi]
And the saviors who are fast asleep
[C]
They wait for you
[Bb]
(4)And I wait for them to interrupt
[C]
Me drinkin' from my broken cup
[Dmi]
And ask me to
[C]
Open up the gate for you
[Ami]
(I)Now all my fathers, they've gone down
[Dmi]
True love they've been without it
[Ami]
But all their daughters put me down
[Bb] [C]
'Cause I don't think about it
[F]
(5)Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
[Ami]
And talk with my chambermaid
[Dmi]
She knows that I'm not afraid
[C]
To look at her
[Bb]
(6)She is good to me
[C]
And there's nothing she doesn't see
[Dmi]
She knows where I'd like to be
[C]
But it doesn't matter
[F]
(7)Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit
[Ami]
He spoke to me, I took his flute
[Dmi]
No, I wasn't very cute to him
[C]
Was I?
[Bb]
(8)But I did it, though, because he lied
[C]
Because he took you for a ride
[Dmi]
And because time was on his side
[C]
And because I...
I want you
