[C#m]
[B] She'd [C#m] do the slaughter
[A] Oh, I [B] thought this mess
[E] Stole up all your sons [C#m] and daughters
[A] And [B] strangled all the kid [G] blood
She's got [E] eyes like [C] saucers
[D] Oh, you think she's a [G] dish
She [E] is the blue chip
[C] That belongs [B] to the big [Em] fish
But it's easier [G] to say I love [C] you
Than [Em] yours since silly I suppose
Our [G] little sisters
[Em] Like to try on [B] big sisters' [G] clothes
[B] Big sisters' [C] clothes
[G] Spot [Cm] of kings, the [G] whole queen's hot
The [Cm] prince in darkness [Em] stole some tarts
It's [C] in the papers, it's [Em] in the charts
It's [C] in the stock press [B] before it all starts
[E] With a hammer on the [C#m] slap and [A] tickle
Of the [B] girls in the [E] garments
With all the [C#m] style and [A] finesse
Of [B] the purchase of [G] armaments
Compassion went out of [D] fashion
That's all you can [G] send me
[E] Sweated out for thirty seconds on all-noon [B] romance
[F#] But it's easier [G] to say I love you
Than [Em] yours since silly I suppose
[G] Our little [Em] sisters
Like to try [B] on big sisters' [C] clothes
[B]
Big [C] sisters' clothes
[B] Big sisters' clothes
Big [Em] sisters' clothes
