Hedwig And The Angry Inch - Wig In A Box Cifras

[Intro]
 
A  E/G#    F#m  G6
D
 
[Verse 1]
 
A         E/G#
On nights like this
F#m7     G6             D
When the world's a bit amiss
        E
And the lights go down
 A                 E   E7
Across the trailer park
A
I get down
E/G#
I feel had
F#m7          G6             D
I feel on the verge of going mad
    E                           A
And then it's time to punch the clock
 
[Chorus]
 
A             E
I put on some make-up
F#m             C#m
And turn up the tape deck
D            A              E        F#7
And pull the wig down on my head
Bm          E
Suddenly I'm Miss Midwest
A        E/G#     G6
Midnight Checkout Queen
A       D
Until I head home
    E             A       G      D
And put myself to bed
 
[Verse 2]
 
A          E/G#
I look back on where I'm from
F#m7        G          D
Look at the woman I've become
        E
And the strangest things
    A            E
Seem suddenly routine
A                 E/G#
I look up from my vermouth on the rocks
F#m            G                D
A gift-wrapped wig still in the box
   E             A
Of towering velveteen
 
[Chorus]
 
A             E
I put on some make-up
F#m             C#m
And some LaVern Baker
D            A                 E      F#7
And pull the wig down from the shelf
Bm           E            A        E/G#    G6
Suddenly I'm Miss Beehive nineteen sixty-three
A       D
Until I wake up
    E            A          G     D
And turn back to myself
 
[Verse 3]
 
A                     E/G#
Some girls they got a natural ease
F#m          G6           D
They wear it any way they please
           E
With their french flip curls
    A            E
And perfumed magazines
A
Wear it up
E/G#
Let it down
F#m         G6                 D
This is the best way that I've found
          E                A
To be the best you've ever seen
 
[Chorus]
 
A             E
I put on some make-up
F#m             C#m
And turn up the eight-track
D               A                 E      F#7
I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf
Bm           E           A
Suddenly I'm Miss Farrah Fawcett
E/G#    G6
From TV
A       D
Until I wake up
    E              A
And turn back to myself
 
[Bridge]
 
D
Shag, bi-level, bob
C
Dorothy Hamill do,
D
Sausage curls, chicken wings
     C
It's all because of you
          D
With your blow dried, feather back,
C
Toni home wave, too
D
flip, fro, frizz, flop,
     C
It's all because of you
     Bb
It's all because of you
     A7                     G
It's all because of you
 
[Chorus]
 
A             E
I put on some make-up
F#m         C#m
Turn up the eight-track
    D           A                 E       F#7
I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf
Bm          E               A
Suddenly I'm this punk rock star
   E/G#      G6
Of stage and screen
A           D
And I ain't never
    E             A
I'm never turning back
