Am
Now I'm of consenting age
Dm
To be forgetting you in a cabaret
Am
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen
Dm
May even ask my name
Am
As she sheds her skin on stage
Dm Am
I'm sitting and sweating to a dance song on the club's PA.
Dm
And the strip joint veteran sits two away
G D F
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri...
Am C G
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Am C G
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
Am C G D
And paying in naivety
Oh, but I'm afraid that I,
Well I may have faked it
Am Dm
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place
Am Dm
Well, I'm afraid that I,
That's right, well I may have faked it
Am Dm
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place
Am C G
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Am C G
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
(Instrumental)
Am Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm
Am Dm
Well, I'm afraid that I,
Well I may have faked it
Am Dm
And I wouldn't be caught dead-d-dead-d-dead-d-dead in this place
Am Dm
Well, I'm afraid that I,
That's right, well I may have faked it
Am Dm
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place
Am C G
And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Am C G
Oh, isn't this exactly where you'd like me
D Am
I'm exactly where you'd like me you know
C D
Praying for love in a lap dance
And paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
Am Dm
