[D] [G]
[A] [Bm] [A]
[D] Take your tiny feet out [A] of your mother's shoes
[F#] Or there is going [C#] to be [Em] a terrible [D] scene
[F#m] It's not just the lipstick drawn [D] on crooked [F#m] blending
[Bm] Find out [E] how wicked we are
[Cm] How wicked we have been
[Em] How I've been [G] tempted
[F#m] How you drifted [A] every step
You [Bm] drifted every [Am] step
You drifted [Bm] every step
[G] Oh, [F#m] how you drifted [G] every step
[D]
[F#] There's a very [D] gentle start tonight
[F#m] And it's in you [Bm] like many [E] famous pop songs [D] do
And [F#m] you would sing [G] along with [A] little town [F#] dance taggers
[Bm] While balancing on daggers
Though [Cm] they were [G] killing you
[B] You looked so dead then
[A] As you drifted [G] every step
You [Bm] drifted every [D] step
You drifted [Bm] every step
Oh, [D]
as you drifted [G] every step
[A#] And I would [Gm] run to catch you [Cm] anytime [Am] you'd [Gm] crawl
Only you drank that potion and [D] went out of control
[A#] There's nothing [Gm] to stop you so [Cm] how can you [D] [G] fall
Let me [Em] take your hand
[F] Put down [A] that frying [D] pan
Darkness would [D] become the [G] underneath [D] the table
As the fury raged [A] around the [D] house
Your [F#m] despairing tread [G] was [D] angry and [F#m] unstable
You [B] never [Bm] suspected
[A] Just as that cartoon [G]
mouse, [Em] Rembrandt did [G] that day
[F#m] So you drifted [G] every step
In [D] [F#m] another world [G] of [D] gin and [F#m] cigarettes
Those [Bm] cocktail [Em] cabinets would mud [A] in your eyes
[D] [F#] Maybe that is why [G] you find [D] it hard to [F#m] see me
And [Bm] if you don't believe [F#] me
Before you start to [B] cry
Don't [Em] ever leave [G] me
I [A] just like to lose [G] your grip
[D] [G]
You [A] will stumble and [G] you slip
[D] [G]
As you [A] drifted every step
You [Bm] drifted every [D] step
You drifted every step
Oh, [G] as you [A] drifted every step
