Stockings chords and lyrics - SUZANNE VEGA, SUZANNE VEGA

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I don't [D]care for tights, she says
and does not tell me why
She hikes her skirt above her knee
revealing one brown thigh
[G]I see, I say,

[Verse 2]
and wonder at
her slender little [D]fingers
How cleverly they pull upon
the threads of recent slumbers
[G]Do [Gm]you

[Verse 3]
know [G]where [A]friendship ends
and [D]passion does begin?
[G]It's between the bin[A]ding of
her stockings and her
[G]skin.[D]
(oh yeah)

[Verse 4]
She stayed [D]up so late I thought
she'd ask me to go dance
But something in the way she laughed
told me I had no chance
[G]The fiction in

[Verse 5]
her family
was that she was never nice
I'd [D]say she was very
I just did not see the price
[G]Do you

[Verse 6]
know where [A]friendship ends
and [D]passion does [G]begin?
When the gin and [A]tonic
makes the room begin
[G]to spin.[D]
(oh yeah)

[Verse 7]
There may [D]be attraction here
but it will never flower
So I'm assigned to read her mind, now
in this witching hour
[G]Here's no

[Verse 8]
game for those who claim
to be easily bruised
But [D]how can I complain

[Verse 9]
when she's so easily amused?
[G]Do you know where [A]friendship ends
[G]and [Gsus4]passion does b[G]egin?
[Gm](When she [G]does not [A]show you
the way [D]out on the [G]way in) - -
It's between the [A]binding
of her stockings and her [G]skin.

[Outro 1]
(oh yeah)
[D]
[D][D]
