SUGAR MICE (Marillion)
[Intro]
  G  Cadd9G  Cadd9
|  |  |  |  |
[Verse 1]
      G                                     Cadd9
I was flicking through the channels on the TV
     G                          Cadd9
On a Sunday in Milwaukee in the rain
G                              Cadd9
Trying to piece together conversations
G                                   Cadd9
Trying to find out where to lay the blame
[Chorus]
    D
But when it comes right down to it 
               Am7
there's no use trying to pretend
    G
For when it gets right down to it 
               Cadd9
there's no one here that's left to blame
            D                       Am7
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me
                             G     Cadd9
We're just sugar mice in the rain
[Verse 2]
          G                             Cadd9
I heard Sinatra calling me through the floorboards
                G                                 Cadd9
Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in rhyme
       G                       Cadd9
To the jukebox crying in the corner
          G                                Cadd9
While the waitress is counting out the time
[Chorus]
    D
For when it comes right down to it 
               Am7               Cadd9
there's no use trying to pretend
    G
For when it gets right down to it 
               Cadd9
there's no one really left to blame
            D                       Am7
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me
           Cadd9                 G
We're just sugar mice in the rain

[Bridge]
         G
'Cause I know what I feel, know what I want 
  Cadd9                       G           Cadd9
I know what I am Daddy took a raincheck
         G
'Cause I know what I want, know what I feel 
  Cadd9                         G
I know what I need Daddy took a raincheck, 
                  Cadd9
your daddy took a raincheck
G                                             Cadd9
 Ain't no one in here that's left to blame but me
            G               Cadd9  G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Blame it on me, blame it on me
[Verse 3]
         G
Well the toughest thing that I ever did 
    Cadd9
was talk to the kids on the phone
       G
When I heard them asking questions 
            Cadd9
I knew that you were all alone
          G                                      Cadd9
Can't you understand that the government left me out of work
       G
I just couldn't stand the looks on their faces
     Cadd9
 saying, "What a jerk"
[Chorus]
   D                                  Am7
So if you want my address it's number one at the end of the bar
        G
Where I sit with the broken angels 
             Cadd9
clutching at straws and nursing our scars
            D               Am7
Blame it on me, blame it on me,
                      G
Sugar mice in the rain, 
                  Cadd9
your daddy took a raincheck
                  G            Cadd9  G
your daddy took a raincheck
