I'll Wear It Proudly

Elvis Costello

Transcribed by phillip@phoenix.princeton.edu

D

I hate these flaming curtains

A

They're not the color of your hair

G

I hate these striplights

D

They're not so undoing as your stare

D

I hate the buttons on your shirt

G

When all I want to do is tear

G

I hate this bloody big bed of mine

A

When you're not here

D D/C# Bm G

Well I finally found someone to turn me upside down

D F#m A

And nail my feet up where my head should be

D D/C# Bm G

If they had a King of Fools then I could wear that crown

D

And you can all die laughing

F#m D

Cos I'll wear it proudly

Organ (2 times)

Well you semm to be shivering dear

And the room is awfully warm

In the white and scarlet billows

That subside beyond the storm

You have this expression dear

No words could take its place

And I wear it like a badge

That you put all over my face

Chorus

A

I'll wear it proudly

G D

Through the dives and the dancehalls

A

If you'll wear it proudly

G D

Through the snakepits and catcalls

A G

Like a fifteen year old kid

D Bm

Wears a vampire kiss

G

If you don't know what is wrong with me

A

Then you don't know what you've missed

We are arms and legs

Wrapped round more than my memory tonight

When the bell rang out

And the air turned blue from fright

But in shameless moments

You made more of me than just a mess

And a handful of eagerness

Says "What do you suggest?"

Chorus
