[Verse 1]

D C

Don’t you know that you’re the only Queen

Of this one-horse town

D C

You’re the only one that meant a thing to me

Gmaj7

You’re still hanging around

[Chorus]

I used to see you on the sidewalk

Standing in your high tops

Ruining your pretty lungs

With your cigarette smoke

It ain’t keeping you young

Touch me like you know me

Baby, when you’re lonely

Kiss me on my open mouth

I’ll throw you a rope

I’ll keep pulling you out

[Verse 2]

D C

All the years that came and went for you

Are you feeling it now?

All the pretty things I tried to say to you

Gmaj7

But when I opened my mouth

No, nothing came out

[Chorus]

I used to see you on the sidewalk

Standing in your high tops

Ruining your pretty lungs

With your cigarette smoke

It ain’t keeping you young

Touch me like you know me

Baby, when you’re lonely

Kiss me on my open mouth

I’ll throw you a rope

I’ll keep pulling you out
