Intro
Em F# (x2)
[Verse 1]
Bm A G
She said, what is it that I've done that you want me to be punished
Bm A G
As she woke up one day to find he had started to vanish
A
If you overhear voices
Em A
Perhaps you should not be listening
Em G
Twitch the vigilant lace,
A
Make a sly, sour face,
Bsus4 B
Set the scandalous whispering
[Chorus]
F#m E B
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
F#m E B
As the kids paint him out of their refrigerator pictures
Em
She picks up the bills
F#m
Pays off the babysitter
G G Em F#
'Cause everybody knows burnt sugar is so bitter
[Instrumental]
Em F# (x3)
[Bridge]
C#m F#m7
Once there was a time
C#m F#m7
Before he turned strange
Bm D
She thought they would be together for more than a lifetime
C#m F#m7
Look at him now
C#m F#m7
My, how things have changed
G F#m
He could tear the sweetheart out of any girl
C#m F#7
On just a whim
D Bm
And turn it from a candy to a caramel
C#m F#m
Then make her hate the silly way she used to feel
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 G
And say, I know nothing about him
[Instrumental]
Em F# (x2)
[Verse 2]
Bm A G
Now what's left of the birthday cake is very beautifully frosted
Bm A G
An absent father picks up the phone to find the number's unlisted
A
And while the kids are distracted
Em A Em
They don't notice she's nervous at all
G
But how long it will take
A
Not to make a mistake
Bsus4 B
When a gentleman comes to call
[Chorus 2]
F#m E B
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
F#m E B
As the kids tear down their refrigerator pictures
Em F#m
They already know how a woman may advance
G F#m
From a pretty picture hat to a supermarket trance
Em F#m
But if he's unkind he might as well forget her
G
'Cause everybody knows
G Em F#
burnt sugar is so bitter
Em F# Em F#
Burnt sugar is so bitter
Em F#
Burnt sugar
[Outro]
Em E
