VERSE 3 
Poor little darling.. with a chip out of her heart, 
It's like acting in a movie.. When you've got the wrong part. 
Getting your kicks, in another girls bed, 
And it was only last Tuesday... Oh..they found you in the subway dead.

VERSE 4 
And who could you call your friends down in Soho? 
One or two, middle aged dykes in a Go-Go? 
And what do you expect from a sixteen year old yo-yo? 
And hey hey hey (hey hey hey}...oh don't you know.

OUTRO: Am# and fade

This song also works well if you capo it at the first fret to play the verses and 
such. The just transpose the chords down one-half step.
