CAPO 1 fret



G                  D
It was a moonlight mishap
         E     A4 A  
You lost your party hat
            D                 G              A  A4  
Seems your lifestyle ain?t so worthwhile after all
G               D
A heavy-hearted taxi ride
       E           A4 A      
Then a walk on the wild side
         D         G            A  A4
Did your guardian angel let you down?
G                 D
Gonna lay low and play it straight
          E    A4   A    
It?s time to rejuvenate
      D                         G           A   A4
Gonna kick start your heart until you come around

Em                   A                        A4
I can tell you now; you?ve really gotten the blues
      Em                  A                   A4
I can tell you now; that I?ve walked in your shoes
          Em        G   A4
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

G               D
You better get outta the way
             E        A4  A 
It?s history made the hard way
       D          G        A  A4
From a hero to a zero once again
G                 D
Ain?t no time for vanity
   E      A4  A
Or this insanity
       D                          G          A   A4
You?re maladjusted and now you?re busted once again

Em                   A              A4  
I can tell you now; it comes as no surprise
      Em                A                A4
I can tell you now; by that look in your eyes
          Em         G      A4
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

G                    D
You?re looking kinda punch drunk
                       E          A4 A
Cuz that?s the way you strut your stuff
       D           G                     A   A4
With a swing and a swagger down the road you go
G                  D
You shoulda made a better choice
                     E     A4 A
And listened to your inner voice
    D                       G      A       A4
You gotta get right or get left, don?t ya know

Em                   A                    A4
I can tell you now; it?s the peak of bad news
     Em                  A                  A4
I can tell you now; that I?ve walked in your shoes
          Em        G   A4
Gimme the sweet and lowdown
    G          A    A4   G
The sweet and lowdown
G         D       G    D         A A4
Gimme the sweet - the sweet and lowdown
