But its better if you do ukulele

But its better if you do

• Am

    Am 
Now I'm of consenting age 
         Dm 
To be forgetting you in a cabaret 
    Am 
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen 
     Dm 
May even ask my name 
 
 
       Am 
As she sheds her skin on stage 
    Dm                                                  Am 
I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA. 
                                          Dm 
And the strip joint veteran sits two away 
                                                 G         D   F 
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri... 
 
 
Am        C            G    
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
      D                               Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know 
             C         D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
 
And paying in naivety 
 
 
Am        C            G 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
       D                                Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know 
            C          D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
                               Am     C     G     D 
And paying in naivety  
 
 
 
Oh, but I'm afraid that I, 
 
Well I may have faked it 
    Am                        Dm 
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place 
 
      Am                    Dm 
Well, I'm afraid that I, 
 
That's right, well I may have faked it 
    Am                    Dm 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 
 
 
Am        C            G 
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
      D                               Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know 
            C         D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
 
And paying in naivety 
 
 
Am        C            G 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
      D                                Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know 
            C         D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
 
And paying in naivety 
 
 
 
(Instrumental) 
Am          Am Dm        Am  Dm       Am  Dm 
 
      Am                Dm 
Well, I'm afraid that I, 
 
Well I may have faked it 
    Am                       Dm 
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place 
 
 
      Am                Dm 
Well, I'm afraid that I, 
 
That's right, well I may have faked it 
    Am                   Dm 
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place 
 
 
Am        C            G 
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
      D                                 Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know 
            C         D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
 
And paying in naivety 
 
 
Am        C            G 
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me 
      D                                 Am 
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know 
            C          D 
Praying for love in a lap dance 
 
And paying in naivety 
 
Praying for love and paying in naivety 
 
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh 
 
 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm 
Am     Dm
