from their 3rd album "Waking Up With the House on Fire" (1984)


this song wasn't recorded with guitar, but soft guitar does sound nice


(n.C.)    A         
You can't bystand all the people

Bm                  G 
Stand them on their own

A           
They will ...

Bm                G
So we watch them ...

     C                     D           G                 
Into strange and pretty faces I ....

          C                  D
Clutching to my lipstick traces 

           E
Watch them go


                         A 
Make mistake number three

D    Gmaj7               A
 Make mistake number three

D     Gmaj7              A
 Make mistake number three

    D             G
mistake number three
