F#m
You came along for a weekend
But you only stayed for one night
You took off your hair
You pulled out your teeth
Oh I almost died of fright

Chorus:
D                E                 F#m     E D
You'd better do something for your own sake
             E
Yes it's a shame
C#m
Ah you know you're a living wreck

You said you were a virgin
Full of promise and mystery
But I knew that you
Would bring me down
Because everyone calls you big G

Chorus

But I know that you
Would bring me down

Chorus
