[Verse]
D#
Leaned over and gave her a kiss,
D#
She blew up in my face
A#
I didn't even know her name,
A#
Outside the party was dark and cloudy
D#
Smoke was pouring out of the kitchen
D#
I was thinking bout the price of admission
A#
Waitin' for the knock on the door
A#
Feelin like I'd been there before
D#
Teddy stood up from the couch and said
D#
"Maria's killing me,
A#
You oughta see her dressed in body black leather,
A#
She's a Goddamned cat in heat.
D#
She's the meanest, saddest girl
D#
This whole town is ever sighed about
A#
Only comes out at night
A#
Fallen angel under the streetlight
D#
Crooked straight, she's filthy innocent
D#
I'd rather cut myself than forget about her"
D#
Oh, the sky had fallen
D#
There was no doubt about it
A#
Fat crippled lady in the room upstairs
A#
Practicing her banjo.
D#
Preacher in the room downstairs
D#
Putting on his midnight mascara
A#
There's a fag bar opening downtown
A#
His rooms are sharp and yellow
D#
Everybody's waiting to find the last drink
D#
The last word to say
A#
The last place to go
A#
The end of the show
