Introdução:
Em
My old man is a bad man but
I can't deny the way he holds my hand
Am Em
And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
Am
He doesn't mind I have an LA crass way about me
Em
He loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart
(Em)
Am
Watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples
Em
You sit sippin' on your black Cristal, yeah
(Em)
Am
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Em
Give me them gold coins, gimme them coins
(Em)
Am
Cuz he knows I'm wasted, facing
Time again on Riker's Island and I won't get out
D
Because I'm crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
C
I'm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
Em
Ready for you
(Em)
Am
And he shows me, he knows me
Em
Every inch of my tar black soul
He doesn't mind I have a flat broke down life
Am
In fact he says he thinks it's why he might like about me
Em
Admires me, the way I roll like a Rolling Stone
(Em)
Am Em
Glass room perfume Cognac lilac fume
Says it feels like heaven to him
Am
Light of your life, fire of your loins
Em
Tell me you own me, gimme them coins
(Em)
Am
Cuz he knows I'm wasted, facing
Time again on Riker's Island and I won't get out
D
Because I'm crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
C
I'm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
Em
Now I'm off to the races, laces
Leather on my waist is tight and I am fallin' down
Am
I can see your face is shameless, Cipriani's basement
Love you but I'm going down

I'm your little harlot, starlet, Queen of Coney Island
Raising hell all over town
Em
Sorry 'bout it
Am Em
My old man is a thief and I'm gonna stay and pray with him 'til the end
D Am
But I trust in the decision of the lord to watch over us
Take him when he may, if he may
Em D
I'm not afraid to say that I'd die without him
Am
Who else is gonna put up with me this way?
I need you, I breathe you, I never leave you
Em D
They would rue the day I was alone without you
Am
You're lying with your gold chain on, cigar hanging from your lips
Em D
I said "Hon' you never looked so beautiful as you do now, my man."
