Verse 1:
A augmentedA       Amaj7Amaj7
 Eddie's got one crazy eye
        D MajorD
That turns him into a cartoon
        D MajorD
When a pretty girl comes by
A augmentedA               Amaj7Amaj7
 And there's nothin' here to do anymore
    D MajorD
He sits on the stoop all day
       D MajorD
Like there's something he's waiting for
A augmentedA              Amaj7Amaj7
 Cut-finger Louie picks up Eddie in the alley
          D MajorD
He's got all those guys with him
                D MajorD
From that town where they all look like Frankie Valli
    A augmentedA
They speak fluently blonde
     Amaj7Amaj7
From her legs to her cigarette
      D MajorD
And Louie told Eddie that he'd fix him up
  D MajorD
But he ain't come back yet

A augmentedA
 Zero quit school
     Amaj7Amaj7
And she lost her job again
       D MajorD
And then her boyfriend beat her up
      D MajorD
And now he won't let her in
   A augmentedA
So she's walking by his joint
    Amaj7Amaj7
In a black and blue dress
       D MajorD
She looks at Louie who elbows Eddie who says
         D MajorD
"Don't tell me, lemme guess."

Verse 3:
A augmentedA             Amaj7Amaj7
 Louie and Eddie found a reason then and there
      D MajorD
Carried her over the bridges like fluttering pages they didn't care
A augmentedA
In the terminal where dreams
Amaj7Amaj7
Let so many tickets through
    D MajorD
When strangers look in faces
     D MajorD
And see somebody there they knew
   A augmentedA
You might meet me tomorrow
  Amaj7Amaj7
As all the lights are blooming green
D MajorD
 And you're feeling a little lonely,
     D MajorD
A augmentedA little sad, a little mean
A augmentedA
 Remember a place
  Amaj7Amaj7
Inside of that hotel
          D MajorD
Where you could do anything you want to do
   D MajorD
You couldn't tell

Pre-chorus:
E/F#E/F#        E/D      D MajorD

Ah, this is more trouble than it's worth

Where you are
