make her start where you begin
[chorus] :
C^ Cmaj7v C Cmaj7v D D5 Em7
how you love how you love to watch them burn
how you love how you love to watch them burn
D D5 Em7
cigarette girls
forgotten faces lipstick traces
who needs friends when you've got eyes
broken homes from crooked houses
crocodile tears and alligator smiles
[chorus]
[bridge]:
C G D Dsus D Dsus
I've been watching I've been seeing how's it done
C G Am
it's an ugly ugly world where everybody loves a cigarette girl
[break- pick around verse chords]
it breaks my heart to hear them talking
they say I hope I live before I get old
all that sadness all of it man-made
all that glitter that isn't gold
[chorus]

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BIBLE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
