F

Lucy Grace can't show her face

C

Down in the North End Road

Dm

For in Belgravia

Eb

Rumors have been whispered

C

And suggestions have been made

F

Did you sell your frieds out

C

When the heat got too intense?

Dm

You say you like the danger

Am

But it's only a pretense

Eb

You say you need the money

Gm

When everybody knows you can always

Csus C

Fall back on you inheritance

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?

F

Who's that sneaking 'round the door?

C

You can't come here no more

Dm

Can't you go home again?

Eb

She used to sit alone for hours

C

Spend her evening watering dried flowers

F

When her mother came to stay

C

And finally went to bed

Dm

Lucy Grace was in the frontroom

Am

Shooting through your

Eb

She tried to take your breath away

Gm C

And give you something else instead

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?

Bb

Next year she'll serve her function

C

In that Audrey Hepburn hat

Bb

It still won't suit her much

F

But she'll get over that

Bb

She'll be pale and feign indifference

C

As they're handing out the prizes

Bb

Spilling Daddy's pearls of wisdom

C

And her ugly sister's tranquilisers

Bb C F Bb

Why were you so tardy putting up your guard?

Bb C F Bb

When you hurt so easily and you try so hard

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your arms on these false alarms

Bb C F Bb

Did you bruise your pride on his smile so snide?

Bb C F Dm

Only fingertips from forbidden bliss

Bb C F

Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?
