Chords with lyrics
Capo 2
E minorEm B7B7 E minorEm B7B7
E minorEm
For years she watched him eyein'
B7B7
Every girl that walked by him
E minorEm
Now it's hit the fan and flyin'
B7B7
She saw the lipstick on his neck
A minorAm
He swore it was just that once
E minorEm
He'd win back her trust
A minorAm B7B7
But she caught him on the run with a young busty brunette
She lost her head
E minorEm
She could hear the fat lady singing
B7B7
Curtain dropped so fast it's swinging
E minorEm
He'll be beltin' soprano
B7B7
At the devil's piano
A minorAm E minorEm
She's goin' down
A minorAm E minorEm
Six feet underground
B7B7 E minorEm B7B7 E minorEm B7B7
'Cause the fat lady's singin' now
E minorEm
She showed the hussy to the door
B7B7
Said marriage is worth fightin' for
E minorEm
They made love like never before
B7B7
Then she played possum while he slept
A minorAm
Sunrise lit the final act
E minorEm
Poison pancakes coffee black
A minorAm B7B7
She set the tray upon his lap and fed him breakfast in bed
Ding dong he's dead
E minorEm
She could hear the fat lady singing
B7B7
Curtain dropped so fast it's swinging
E minorEm
He'll be beltin' soprano
B7B7
At the devil's piano
A minorAm E minorEm
She's goin' down
A minorAm E minorEm
Six feet underground
B7B7
'Cause the fat lady's singin'
E minorEm B7B7 E minorEm B7B7
Singin' now
E minorEm
Sunday's front page paper read
B7B7
Pancakes and Passion Leave One Man Dead
E minorEm
If she's sorry it sure don't show it
B7B7
She's chirpin' like a bird down on death row
E minorEm
She could hear the fat lady singing
B7B7
Curtain dropped so fast it's swinging
E minorEm
He'll be beltin' soprano
B7B7
At the devil's piano
A minorAm E minorEm
She's goin' down
A minorAm E minorEm
Six feet underground
B7B7
'Cause the fat lady's singin'
E minorEm B7B7 E minorEm B7B7
Singin' now
E minorEm
