D                   A               Em                G        F   D           C Bb D 
Black and blue from passing around, Whitey says, 'the Lady ain't a hit no more' 
D        A              Em              G      F     D          C Bb D /C 
Cecilia Amanda, I don't want to see you get like you got before 
Bb                   Gm                Eb                        Gm 
Another patient in a party dress yesterday, dancing on a remnant scratch 
Bb                          Gm                Eb        D 
In a place where lonely men pay to make their opposites match. 



D            A              Em                   G       F   D   C Bb D 
Little Miss Amanda wants to know how long you're going to be gone 
        D              A              Em               G       F   D   C Bb D /C 
And she asked me can I fix it so your record plays the rest of her song 
Bb              Gm                        Eb       Gm 
Because every remembrance of you has been buried below 
Bb                Gm  Eb      D 
Every memory that I unhappily know 




D   /F#       Gm  /Bb /C   D 
I'm sorry for you and your kid 
    /F#        Gm                /Bb  /C D 
The things you promised that you never did 
    /F#                  Gm     /Bb /C  
She asked me, 'Are you a pretty dancer?' 
D           /F#                Gm 
But I don't think I'm going to answer, oh 

D                   A               Em                  G       F    D          C Bb D 
black and blue from passing on now, whitey has paid you back to your daily score 
       D            A         Em              G       F      D           C Bb D /C 
If you got a little baby now, I don't want to see you around here no more     Ah 
Bb                    Gm                Eb                           Gm 
Amanda put on her new party dress yesterday, dancing to a record you scratched 
Bb                       Gm           Eb        D 
I'm some dealing amateur actor making opposites match
