Dm
Well ya play that tarantella
Bb
All the hounds will start to roll
A
The boys all go ta hell
Dm
And then the Cubans hit the floor
Dm
And they drive along the pipeline
Bb
They tango 'till they're sore
A
They take apart their nightmares
Dm
And they leave 'em by the door
Chorus:
Gm
Let me fall out of the window
A
With confetti in my hair
Dm
Deal out Jacks or better
Gm
On a blanket by the stairs
A
I'll tell you all my secrets
Dm
But I lie about my past
Bb A Dm
So send me off to bed for evermore
Verse 2:
Dm
Make sure they play my theme song
Bb
I guess daisy's will have to do
A
Just get me to New Orleans
Dm
And paint shadows on the pews
Dm
Turn the spit on that pig
Bb
And kick the drum and let me down
A
Put my clarinet beneath my bed
Dm
Till I get back in town
Chorus
Dm
Just make sure she's all in calico
Bb
In the colour of a doll
A
Wave the flag on Cadillac day
Dm
And a skillet on the wall
Dm
Cut me a switch
Bb
Or hold your breath till the sun goes down
A
Write my name on the hood
Dm
Send me off to another town
Chorus ( x 2 )
