Maxine

    Dm*
Creases in your white dress  bruises on your bare skin
       C                             Dm
looks like another fine mess you’ve got yourself into.
           Dm*
What’s the matter with you  has the cat got your tongue ?
      C                                  Dm
Well  if you don’t like the beat  don’t play with the drum.

  Gm                         Bb                          Gm
Maxine  you’re not the only one to take the whole world on
                  Dm
but no one’s ever won.
  Gm                         Bb                       Gm
Maxine  case one-three-five-two  a red and green tattoo
                 Dm
eyes cold steel blue.

    Dm*
On a rain slicked avenue  long shadows in the night
      C
take off your spike heeled shoes
              Gm
you’ve got to run for your life (run for your life).
 Gm*
Razor blade in your pocket  from an ex-marine
 C                                     Dm
makes you speed like a rocket  ooh  it cuts so clean.

(NB: whole goes up a semitone for final verse & chorus)

                D#m*
How come you're playing for borrowed time  staring out into space
  C#                              D#m
bad boys and cold comfort  and a smacked-up face.
