  Tiger Lillies - Same old story

Fm
Born in a slum in Rome
Fm
Born in filth and rags
G
You climb the weary road of youth
Fm
Alone and often sad


Fm
You climb the hills your feet get sore
Fm
And then your heart goes numb
G
And as you reach your teenage years
Fm
A whore you do become


Fm
And as I see you
G                 Fm
My eyes fill with tears
Fm
It's the same old story
G                      Fm
It's been going on for years


Fm  Fm
Well now all around you men do fall
G
But you know don't you know
Fm
That you're just lust's pawn


Fm
The poverty you felt in youth
Fm
Well it still plays a part
G
The poverty once in your purse
Fm
Well now it's in your heart


Fm
And as I see you
G                 Fm
My eyes fill with tears
Fm
It's the same old story
G                      Fm
It's been going on for years


Fm
So now the money starts to flow
Fm
Well how sweet for a short time
G
But then the sweetness does turn sour
Fm
It's another weary time


Fm
And as I see you
G                 Fm
My eyes fill with tears
Fm
It's the same old story
G                      Fm
It's been going on for years
