[Verse 1]
A Eddie's got Amaj7one crazy eye
That turns him Dinto a cartoon
When a pretty gDirl comes by
A And there's nothin' here to dAmaj7o anymore
He sits Don the stoop all day
Like there's sDomething he's waiting for
A Cut-finger Louie picks up Amaj7Eddie in the alley
He's got all those gDuys with him
From that town where they all lDook like Frankie Valli
They spAeak fluently blonde
From her lAmaj7egs to her cigarette
And Louie tDold Eddie that he'd fix him up
ButD he ain't come back yet
[Pre-chorus]
Well, you know E/F#

A Zero quit school
And she lAmaj7ost her job again
And then her bDoyfriend beat her up
And now he wDon't let her in
So shAe's walking by his joint
In a blAmaj7ack and blue dress
She looks at LDouie who elbows Eddie who says
"Don't tell me, lDemme guess."
[Pre-chorus]

[Verse 3]
A Louie and Eddie found a rAmaj7eason then and there
Carried her Dover the bridges like fluttering pages they didn't care
AIn the terminal where dreams
Amaj7Let so many tickets through
When strDangers look in faces
And see sDomebody there they knew
You mAight meet me tomorrow
As Amaj7all the lights are blooming green
D And you're feeling a little lonely,
A little sDad, a little mean
A Remember a place
InsAmaj7ide of that hotel
Where you could do Danything you want to do
You cDouldn't tell
[Pre-chorus]
E/F# It's more troubE/Dle than it's wDorth
E/F#Ah, this is more troubE/Dle than it's Dworth
