For those who enjoy playing plain chords.
These are the chords for the uptempo version. Transpose one half step down for the cabaret chords.
Tuning is standard. Put a capo on the first fret to make it (a bit) easier.


Bbadd9 Bb                  Bbadd9 Bb
       Shine the headlight,        straight into my eyes.
Bbadd9 Bb                  Bbadd9 Bb
       Like the roadkill,          I'm paralyzed.
Dm  Cm      Dm            Cm  Ab  Bb*
       You  see   through my  disguise

Bbadd9 Bb               Bbadd9 Bb
        At the drive-in,        double feature, 
Bbadd9 Bb               Bbadd9 Bb
        Pull the lever,         break the fever 
Dm  Cm      Dm       Cm   Ab    Bb*
        And say your last goodbyes. 

      Gm           F              Bb
Since I was born I started to decay 
    Gm           F              Bb      
Now nothing ever ever goes my way
