Intro
G#m A# (x2)
[Verse 1]
D#m C# B
She said, what is it that I've done that you want me to be punished
D#m C# B
As she woke up one day to find he had started to vanish
C#
If you overhear voices
G#m C#
Perhaps you should not be listening
G#m B
Twitch the vigilant lace,
C#
Make a sly, sour face,
D#sus4 D#
Set the scandalous whispering
[Chorus]
A#m G# D#
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
A#m G# D#
As the kids paint him out of their refrigerator pictures
G#m
She picks up the bills
A#m
Pays off the babysitter
B B G#m A#
'Cause everybody knows burnt sugar is so bitter
[Instrumental]
G#m A# (x3)
[Bridge]
Fm A#m7
Once there was a time
Fm A#m7
Before he turned strange
D#m F#
She thought they would be together for more than a lifetime
Fm A#m7
Look at him now
Fm A#m7
My, how things have changed
B A#m
He could tear the sweetheart out of any girl
Fm A#7
On just a whim
F# D#m
And turn it from a candy to a caramel
Fm A#m
Then make her hate the silly way she used to feel
F#maj7 Bmaj7 B
And say, I know nothing about him
[Instrumental]
G#m A# (x2)
[Verse 2]
D#m C# B
Now what's left of the birthday cake is very beautifully frosted
D#m C# B
An absent father picks up the phone to find the number's unlisted
C#
And while the kids are distracted
G#m C# G#m
They don't notice she's nervous at all
B
But how long it will take
C#
Not to make a mistake
D#sus4 D#
When a gentleman comes to call
[Chorus 2]
A#m G# D#
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
A#m G# D#
As the kids tear down their refrigerator pictures
G#m A#m
They already know how a woman may advance
B A#m
From a pretty picture hat to a supermarket trance
G#m A#m
But if he's unkind he might as well forget her
B
'Cause everybody knows
B G#m A#
burnt sugar is so bitter
G#m A# G#m A#
Burnt sugar is so bitter
G#m A#
Burnt sugar
[Outro]
G#m E
