Verse 1:
(Played choppy and often mute strings, by lifting fingers off the fretboard, in-between strumming.)
Bm
I've been around this town for so long
C#m
She's been dancing since the first day
I've been all around but
Bm
I love comin' back to see Lucy
Verse 2:
Bm
She swings me over to pull me out
Twirls around and I fall about
C#m
In giggles and laughter
Oh! I'm plastered
Bm
Can't damn help it, I'm sorry love
Verse 3:
Bm\
What's to falling feeling feet?
Bm\
For bouncing a-round-a these streets
C#m\ Bm\
They're lonely, like you and you for me
To ask for a dance or two
Bridge:
Bm
With a heart of gold
And a face so pale
C#m
With a second-hand dress
Bm
And the lips of a temptress
Verse 4:
Bm
Barstool banshee, howled out at me
C#m
The kings and queens of the clubs, evolved from pubs
And too much broken heart love
Bm
And singin' up the blues in a locked boxed bedroom
Pre-chorus:
Bm\
A-wop-bop-A-loo-bops, A-wop-bamboo
Bm\
Are ya gonna take the chance
G\
Why do ya care, know or play fair
G-Bass F#-Bass
And neither do the lords of the dance

Verse 5:
Bm\
Well it's a bang-bang, Anglo Saxons at the disco
Bm
A-tisch-oo! All fall down
C#m
Hound dogs growl on the prowl
For the next young gal
Bm
Who told her daddy "I'm goin' 'round Gemma's to...
Verse 6:
Bm\
...learn and study.

I'm young, so free and I'm kinda sexy

When I'm on the floor all the boys they feel me

And old dear diary's never been a friend of mine
