Intro: G5 C5 x2 G5 C5 G5 C5 The night my baby left me I crossed the bridge to Juarez avenue C5 G5 C5 Like that movie "Touch of evil" I got the Orson Wells, Marlene Dietrich G5 blues C5 G5 Where Orson walks in to the whore house and C5 G5 C5 Marlene says "Man, you look like hell" G5 And Orson's chewing on a chocolate bar C5 as the lights go on in the old Blue Star hotel C5 B5 "Read my future" says old Orson, "down inside the tea leaves of your cup" A5 And she says "You ain't got no future, Hank, C5 D5 G5 I believe your future's all used up" C5 G5 Why don't you touch me anymore? Why don't you touch me anymore? D5 G5 ( G5 ) Why do you run away and hide? You know it hurts me deep inside C5 G5 Why do you close the bedroom door? This is a brutal little war D5 C5 G5 What good is all this fightin' for if you don't touch me anymore? G5 C5 (Chords like 1st verse, until notice) G5 C5 G5 C5 They shot "A touch of evil" in a Venice, California colony C5 G5 And I grew near those dead canals C5 G5 where they filmed the longest pan shot ever made C5 G5 C5 G5 C5 Now I'm thinking about the movie, the bar I'm in, the bridge, the Rio Grande G5 C5 Now I'm thinking about my baby and the borderline 'tween a woman and a man C5 B5 I was drunk as Orson Wells the night I crawled backwards out the door A5 C5 D5 G5 I was screaming "Baby, baby how come you touch me anymore?" CHORUS: G5 C5 x3 (Chords like 2nd verse) G5 C5 G5 C5 Oh, someone rolled the credits on twenty years of love turned dark and raw C5 G5 C5 G5 Not a technicolor love film , it's a brutal document, it's film noir C5 G5 C5 G5 C5 And it's all played out on a borderline and the actors are tragically miscast G5 C5 Like a Mexican burlesk show where the characters are wearing comic masks C5 B5 Oh, it's love and love alone I cry to the barmen in this Juarez waterhole A5 C5 D5 G5 As we raise a glass to Orson and "A touch of evil" livin' our souls CHORUS: Outro: G5 C5 x3 G5
