[D] I choose my friends, only [C] if I [G] do well [D] I'm up on the pavement
And they're [C] all down [G] in the saddle [D] with their gun grants

Louise is a girl, [G] I know her well she's [D] up on the pavement
Yeah she's [G] a weather girl, and [D] I'm staying up here
So I [C] may be [G] undone, [D] she's inappropriate
But then [C] she's much [G] more of a fun [F]
adult
When [G] she smiles my [F] way, my [G] eyes go out in vain
She's got [F] perfect [G]
skin, [C] [D]
shame on you, got no [C] sense [G] of grace, [D] shame on me
[C] Just [G] in case [D] I might come to a conclusion, other [Am] than that [G] which is [D] absolutely necessary

Says turn on the light, otherwise it can't be seen
She's got cheekbones like geometry and [C] eyes [G] like sin
And [D] she's sexually enlightened [C] by [G] cosmopolitan [F] eyes
When she [G] smiles [F] my way, my eyes [G] go out in vain
For her [F] perfect [G]

in the basement, [C] she'll look at the [G] slides, if [D] I'm alive
[C] Pretty weird [G] at [D] times, at the age of ten
She [G] looked like Renegade when [D] I loved her then
[C] How is [G] she to know [F] that?
When she [G] smiles [F] my way, my eyes [G] go out in vain
She's [F] got perfect [G]
skin, I [D] hate flats with stairs, did [C] away with the basement [G] flat
Pretty [D]
confused, huh?
Been [C] shipped around [Em] like that, seems [D]
reclined so high
