[Alternate B/w G

In a hand painted
night, me and Gypsy
Scotty are
partners
At the hotel
Flamingo wearing
black market
shoes
Am
[Alternate B/w
GandD]
This loud Cuban
band is crucifying
John Lennon
Am
No one wants to be
lonely
Am
[Alternate B/w
G and D]
No one wants to
sing the blues
She's perched like
a parrot on his
tuxedo shoulder
Christ, whatcha
doing with him
When you could be
dancing with me
She stirs the ice
with her elegant
finger
I want to be what
she's drinking
Yeah, I just want
to be
CHORUS-
C G
I saw you first
D
G
I'm the first one
tonight
C G
I saw you first
D
G
Don't that give me
the right
C G
To move around in
your heart
D
Everyone was
looking
But I saw you
first
[Alternate between
G and D]
On a moon spattered
road in her parrot
rebozo
Gypsy Scotty is
driving his big long
yellow car
She flies like a
bird over her
shoulder
She whispers in his
ear, boy, you are my
star
CHORUS
In the bone colored
dawn
Me and Gypsy Scotty
are singin'
The radio is
playing
She left her shoes
out in the back
He tells me a story
about some girl he
knows in Kentucky
He just made that
story up; there
ain't no girl like
that
CHORUS and fade |
