For Ladies Only chords by Steppenwolf

Chords with lyrics

E minorEm
You say you're on it but you just don't know
You're spending money like you're on death row
You must be miseducated by all the guys that you've dated
You think I'll take the bait but I don't think so
Oh oh
A minorAm I heading for a car crash
Oh oh
Just about to meet my match
She takes the oh oh
I'm about to fall in head first
Sisters let me tell you how it works
Hey!
   E minorEm
She's got her lipstick on
Here I come da da dum
She's got her lipstick on
Hit and run then I'm gone
   E minorEm
And check my collar, collar, eh eh eh
And check my collar, collar, eh eh
Oh oh

You're looking me and I got you in mind
I come on over see what I could find
No apetite for delusion
How could I win when I'm losing
You're saying yes when it is no, no, no, no

Oh oh
A minorAm I heading for a car crash
Oh oh
Just about to meet my match
She takes the oh oh
I'm about to fall in head first
Sisters let me tell you how it works
Hey!

She's got her lipstick on
Here I come da da dum
She's got her lipstick on
Hit and run then I'm gone
And check my collar, collar, eh, eh eh
And check my collar, collar, eh eh

She's got her lipstick on
Here I come da da dum
She's got her lipstick on
Hit and run then I'm gone
And check my collar, collar, eh, eh eh
And check my collar, collar, eh
                E minorEm
It's not that I don't want to play, play, play
And then I didn't look your way, way, way
                A minorAm
It's not like every girl's the same, same, same
You gotta know just how to treat this miss
          E minorEm
Or she will be dismissed
Hey

She's got her lipstick on
Here I come da da dum
She's got her lipstick on
Hit and run then I'm gone
And check my collar, collar, eh, eh eh
And check my collar, collar, eh eh

She's got her lipstick on
Here I come da da dum
She's got her lipstick on
Hit and run then I'm gone
And check my collar, collar, eh, eh, eh
And check my collar, collar, eh, eh, eh
    E minorEm
Here I come, here I come, da da dum da dum da dum
                 E minorEm
Here I come, here I come, da da dum da dum da dum
     A minorAm
Hit and run, hit and run, dum dum dum dum dum dum dum
     E minorEm
