[Verse]
F Eb
with a heavy heart and tiny feet he stumbled through the moonlit street
A# F
until he reached the open door of drunken men and open whores
F Eb
until i see the roaming hoard i’ll hide myself and view the world
A# F
with such contempt the green surrounds and knows behind your dressing gowns
F Eb
until i see that open door, i’ll mind myself just to be sure
A# F
that no-one else can hear a thing, not even dogs ears to the floor
[Pre-Chorus]

F Eb Dm C
i dont think he likes it when the joke is on you
F Eb A# F
i dont think he takes to well when jokers play the fool
[Verse]
F
so he, stumbles on towards a girl
Eb
who smells as if she’s seen the world
A#
until he finds to his surprise that she’s a he,
F
the girls are guys
F
until i see the tide is right
Eb
i’ll sit alone long through the night
A#
and think about the many things
F
i’d do if it were not for him

F Eb A# F
i dont think he takes to well when jokers play the fool
[Verse]
F
until that night he’d never known
Eb
that men in drag wear sweet cologne
A#
and dressing in your mothers clothes
F
is fine just if she never knows
F
until i hear the road is calm i’ll stick around
Eb
hell what’s the harm?
A#
the treasure that i’d kill to find
F
is waiting on the other side.
