[Verse]
EmWhere are you? What are you waiting for?
EmThis is not a race
Are you trying to Dsteal time, Emsteal time
EmYou in the corner, come closer
EmI can see your face
I can see it Din mine
Oh I see it Emin mine
[Chorus]
EmYou tell a story like Tokyo Rose
EmI got the picture from the stains on your clothes
DDidn't they tell you 'bout the shape I'm in?
EmIn this condition of carnal sin
[Verse]
EmConfuse me, try to talk
EmLike those stains on the sidewalk
It's Dwhat she said, Emgets in my head
EmThe sun's up, you wake up
EmThat beauty at the bus stop
DTurns my head, Emgo back to bed
[Chorus]
EmYou tell a story like Tokyo Rose
EmI got the picture from the stains on your clothes
DDidn't they tell you 'bout the shape I'm in?
EmIn this condition of carnal sin
[Interlude]
CWe'll be alright, Bwe'll be alright
CWe'll be alright, Bwe'll be alright
CI tried to warn you
BI tried to warn you
CWe'll be alright, Balright
[Chorus]
EmYou tell a story like Tokyo Rose
EmI got the picture from the stains on your clothes
DDidn't they tell you 'bout the shape I'm in?
EmIn this condition of carnal sin
EmYou tell a story like Tokyo Rose
EmI got the picture from the stains on your clothes
DDidn't they tell you 'bout the shape I'm in?
EmIn this condition of carnal sin
EmYou tell a story
EmYou tell a story
EmYou tell a story
