lyrics and chords of: Basement Kiss by Wendy James
FLucy Grace can't show her face
Down Cin the North End Road
For in BelDmgravia
RuEbmors have been whispered
And suggestions have been mCade
DFid you sell your frieds out
When the hCeat got too intense?
You Dmsay you like the danger
But it's oAmnly a pretense
You Ebsay you need the money
When eveGmrybody knows you can always
Fall back on you inCsusheritaCnce
Did you brBbuise your aCrms on those faFlse alBbarms
Did you brBbuise your prCide on his smFile so wBbide?
Only BbfingertipCs from forFbidden bDmliss
Did you brBbuise your lips in this basCement kFiss?
WFho's that sneaking 'round the door?
You caCn't come here no more
Can't you go hDmome again?
She uEbsed to sit alone for hours
Spend her evening watering dried floCwers
WFhen her mother came to stay
And finCally went to bed
LDmucy Grace was in the frontroom
ShAmooting through your
She tEbried to take your breath away
GmAnd give you something else insCtead
Did you brBbuise your aCrms on those faFlse alBbarms
Did you brBbuise your prCide on his smFile so wBbide?
Only BbfingertipCs from forFbidden bDmliss
Did you brBbuise your lips in this basCement kFiss?
Next yBbear she'll serve her function
In that AuCdrey Hepburn hat
It sBbtill won't suit her much
But she'll get oFver that
She'll be pBbale and feign indifference
As they're haCnding out the prizes
Spilling DaBbddy's pearls of wisdom
And her ugly sister's tranqCuilisers
Why were yBbou so taCrdy putting Fup your gBbuard?
When you hBburt so eaCsily and you tFry so hBbard
Did you brBbuise your aCrms on these faFlse alBbarms
Did you brBbuise your prCide on his smFile so sBbnide?
Only BbfingertipCs from forFbidden bDmliss
Did you brBbuise your lips in this basCement kFiss?

lyrics and chords of: Basement Kiss by Wendy James

Lucy Grace can't show her face

Down in the North End Road

For in Belgravia

Rumors have been whispered

And suggestions have been made

Did you sell your frieds out

When the heat got too intense?

You say you like the danger

But it's only a pretense

You say you need the money

When everybody knows you can always

Csus C

Fall back on you inheritance

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?

Who's that sneaking 'round the door?

You can't come here no more

Can't you go home again?

She used to sit alone for hours

Spend her evening watering dried flowers

When her mother came to stay

And finally went to bed

Lucy Grace was in the frontroom

Shooting through your

She tried to take your breath away

Gm C

And give you something else instead

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?

Next year she'll serve her function

In that Audrey Hepburn hat

It still won't suit her much

But she'll get over that

She'll be pale and feign indifference

As they're handing out the prizes

Spilling Daddy's pearls of wisdom

And her ugly sister's tranquilisers

Bb C F Bb

Why were you so tardy putting up your guard?

Bb C F Bb

When you hurt so easily and you try so hard

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on these false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so snide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?
