Chords with lyrics
Em
Am
To be forgetting you in a cabaret
Em
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen
Am
May even ask my name
Em
As she sheds her skin on stage
Am Em
I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA.
Am
And the strip joint veteran sits two away
A A G
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri...
Em G A
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Em G A
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
Em G A A
And paying in naivety
Oh, but I'm afraid that I,
Well I may have faked it
Em Am
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place
Em Am
Well, I'm afraid that I,
That's right, well I may have faked it
Em Am
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place
Em G A
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Em G A
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
(Instrumental)
Em Em Am Em Am Em Am
Em Am
Well, I'm afraid that I,
Well I may have faked it
Em Am
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place
Em Am
Well, I'm afraid that I,
That's right, well I may have faked it
Em Am
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place
Em G A
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Em G A
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
A Em
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
G A
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
Em Am
