Well the F#mroom was Bpink and the F#msigns were Eserious
F#mPaperback Bdolls being F#mslammed deElirious
F#mFeeling like a Bjoke in the F#mbar underEneath
And it was F#mSaturday Bnight in the F#myear of the Egood thief
| F#m | F#m | F#m | G#m C# |
Well I F#mtumbled up the Bstairs on the F#mwrong way E'round
I hit my F#mhead on the Bceiling and my F#mfeet hit the Eground
And then the F#mbig dumb Bblonde in the F#mgold fish Ebowl
Cried, "F#mElla's in the Bband but she F#mgot no Esoul!"
DMy friend AJohn was the C#serious Done
Buttoned up the Aback and a C#job half Ddone
Lazy old Aboy when the C#good girls Dturn
His teeth get iAtchy and his C#rubber souls Dburn

And F#meverybody Bdanced in the F#msame old Eway
And if I'm F#mfeeling old and Bdesperate I'll be F#mback some Eday

Not sure about the C#m in the last line of the chorus.
(My chord charts are intended to show how, as a rhythm guitarist,
I play songs. I don't claim they are the "right" way. They are not
tabs, which notate precisely how a song was played on a recording.)
