[Gmaj7]From the courtyard, I floated [/A]in
and w[Bm]atched it go down.
[A/F#m]Heard the cup drop;
thought, "Well,
that's why they [F#m]keep them around."
The b[C#m7]lackguard sat hard, do[/B]wn,
with no [A]head on him now,
and [Dmaj7]I felt so bad,
cause I [Gmaj7]didn't know how
to f[F#/D]eel bad [Em]enough
D (Dmaj7, D7, Daug7)
to make him proud.
[Gmaj7]By the time you read this,
I will be so [Bm]far away.
[A/F#m]Daddy longlegs, how in the world
am I to be [F#m]expected to stay?
[C#m7]In the night?
in the nigh[B]t, you may[A] hear me call
[Dmaj7]Pa, stay your hand
[Gmaj7]and steel your resolve.
[F#/D]Stay where you [Em]are,
so long and [D]tall.
D7 / Daug7
[D]Here's Lola--ta [C]da!--to do
her f[Bb]amous Spider [F]Dance for you!
[G]Lighten up your [A]pockets!
[F]Shake her skirts and [Eb]scatter, there,
a [Bb]shrieking, six-legged [Gm]millionaire
with a [C]blight in his sockets.
[D]Miss Montez,
the [C]Countess of La[Bb]nsfeld,
[F]appealed to the [G]King of [A]Bavaria,
saying, "[F]Pretty papa,
if you a[Eb]re my friend?
mister [Bb]daddy longlegs, they are [Gm]at it again!?
Can I s[C]ee ya?"
[D]Poor Lola! A t[C]arantula mounting
[Bb]Countess Lansfeld's
[F]handsome brass[G]iere,
while they all c[A]heer.
And the o[F]ld king fell from [Eb]grace,
while Lola fl[Bb]ed,
To save [Gm]face and her [C]career
[Am]You caught a [Em]fly, f[B7]loating [C]by,
[D]Wait for him to [F]drown in the dust;
[E7]drown in the dust of other flies,[C]
[Am]whereby the machine is [Em]run,
[B7]and the deed is [C]done.
[D]Heaven has no w[F]ord
for the way [E7]you and your friends
have [C]treated poor Louis.[D]
C Bb F D A (D, A)
May god save your poor soul, Lo-la!
(But t[G]here is[F] nothi[Eb]ng I adore[Bb],
[Cm]apart from that [G]whore's [F]black [C]heart.)
Well, [D]doesn't that just beat [C]all!
Miss Gilbert,
[Bb]called to Castle[F]maine
by the silver [G]dollar and the gold g[A]litter!
Well, [F]I've seen lots,
but [Eb]never, in a [Bb]million years,
would t[Gm]hink to see you, [C]here.
Though the l[D]ong road
begins and [C]ends with you,
I cannot s[Bb]eem to make am[F]ends
with[G] you, L[A]ouis.
When [F]we go out,
they're [Eb]bound to see [Bb]you with[Gm] me.
At [D]night, I walk in the p[C]ark,
with a whip,
between the l[Bb]ines
of the whispering [F]Jesuits,
who are [G]poisoning you [A]against me.
There's a [F]big black spider
hanging o[Eb]ver my door.
Can't go [Bb]anywhere, any[Gm]more.
Tell me, a[C]re you with me?
I c[D]alled to you, several [C]times,
while the [Bb]change took place
and t[F]hen arrived, all n[G]ight,
and I [A]died.
But [F]all these songs,
when [Eb]you and I are long g[Bb]one,
will carry [Gm]on.
Mud in your [C]eye.
[Am]You asked my [Em]hand,
[B7]hired a b[C]and.
"[D]In your heart is all th[F]at you need;
[E]ask and you will [C]receive," it is said.
I [B/C]threw my bou[Am]quet,
and I knocked 'em [Em]dead.
Bottle of [B7]white, bottle of [C]red.
[D]Helpless as a c[F]hild,
when you held [E]me in your arms,
and I kn[C]ew that no other
could ever love[B/C] me as you [Am]loved.
Love me as you [Em]loved,
But [B7]help me! I'm [C]leaving!
[D]I remember ev[F]erything,
[E]down to the sound of you [C]shaving--
the scrape of your razor,
the [B/C]dully-[Am]abrading black hair
that r[Em]emained
when you[B7] clutched at [C]me,
t[D]hat night I came u[F]pstairs, half-dead,
[E]and, in your kindness,
you put [C]me straightaway
in the cupboard,
with a [B/C]bottle of [Am]champagne,
and then, later, on a [Em]train.
It was [B7]dark out, I was h[C]alf-dead.
[D]I saw a star fall into the [F]sky,
like a [E]chunk of thrown coal,
as if [C]god himself spat
like a cornered [B/C]rat.
I real[Am]ly want you to do this for [Em]me,
will you [B7]have one on me[C]?
[D]It was dark; I was [F]drunk and half-dead,
[E]and we slept, knocking heads,
sitting [C]up in the star-smoking air,
knocking h[B/C]eads like bu[Am]oys.
Don't you worry for[Em] me!
Will you h[B7]ave one on m[C]e!
[D]Meanwhile, I will raise my own glass[F]
[E]to how you made me fast
and e[C]xpendable,
and I will drink to your [B/C]excellent h[Am]ealth,
and your c[Em]ruelty.
Will you h[B7]ave one on [C]me?
-[D]-helpless as a [F]child,
when you held [E]me in your arms,
and I k[C]new that no other
could ever love [B]me--[D] [A] [B]
Oooh oooh ooh part : (B, D, A, B)
[Gmaj7]From the courtyard, I floated [A]in
and w[Bm]atched it go down.
[A/F#m]Heard the cup drop;
thought, "Well,
that's why they [F#m]keep them around."
The b[C#m7]lackguard sat hard, do[B]wn,
with no [A]head on him now,
and [Dmaj7]I felt so bad,
cause I [Gmaj7]didn't know how
to f[F#/D]eel bad [Em]enough
to make him p[D]roud.
Well d[D7]addy longlegs, are y[D]ou?
[D7]Daddy longlegs, are [D]you?
[D7]Daddy longlegs, are you [Gmaj7]proud?
F#/D, Em
[D]
