Crocodile tears and the velvet cosh Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You[C]'re[G] a [C]tick[G][C]
[G]et [C]tha[G]t's red,[C]
but the [G]moon is [C]blue
[G]I guess it's ghostwritten
[C]all over [G]my face
[C]You [G]read me like a
[C]well -formed book,
see[G]in' through
[C]Without [G]ever los[C]in'
your [G]place[C][D][G]
Crocodile [C]tears [G]falling down
[C]But [G]that kind of wa
[C]ter doesn't [G]wash[C]
I tried to [G]hold the world
[C]over you[G]r sharp eyes
[C]I t[G]ried to beat you up with[C] a velv[G]et
[D]gash[G][C][D][C][G][C][G][C][Em]
We're [Am]on the rifle range,
shooting moving targets in the [G]dark
[Am]I make hydromer out of soap
and then I'd kiss you like a [G]shark
The ven[Em]eer has cracked,
now I resemble a tree
stripped of it[D]s bark
[Am]Your gullibil[D]ity,
my only [G]hope[C][G][C]
[G]A string of l[C]ies,
like a [G]hand man's [C]noose
[G]Strung like a cheap [C]charm,
round my scrawny [G]neck[C]
[G]Foot in [C]mouth and [G]swingin' high
[C]As [G]this dumb deceiver [C]leaves
the [G]deck[C][G][C][G][C]
And you [G]say, the play I'm in
[C]Is [G]right up my str[C]eet
[G]That's because it's
narrow and twisted
And only one [C]way
[G]My delivery line [C]is [G]dead
on [C]arrival[G][C][G]
I've been [C]playing and [G]that's
my [C]title[G][C]
What's the title of the [G]play?[C]
Oh, I started loving to [G]play
You [C]say
Oh, I started loving to [G]play
You [C]say
Oh, I started loving to [G]play[C]
Oh, I started loving to [G]play[C]
Oh, I started loving to [G]play[C][G]
Oh, I started loving to [C]play[G]
Oh, I started loving to [C]play
Oh, [D]Oh, [C]Crocodile tea[D]rs and
the velvet [C]cars[D][C]
Crocodile [D]tears and the velvet
[C]cars[D][C]
Crocodile [D]tears and the
velvet [C]cush[D][C]
[D]Crocodile tears and the velvet
[G]cush[C][G][C][G][G][C]
You
