Queenie eye    (video)

 

    D - F#m - Am - A      - D - F#m - Am - Bb - G

 

                                                  D

    There were rules you never told me, never came up with a plan,

                                        Am                                            A7

    all the stories that you sold me, didn’t help me understand.

                                  D

    But I had to get it worked out, had nobody who could help,

                                    Am                                        A7

    so then in the end it turned out that I had to do it by myself.

 

    G                            - A

1.     That's the game       of rags to riches,

G                               A

    dogs and bitches hunt for fame,

Bb                                 G                C       D

    until you think you know which way to turn.

G                        - A                            - G                            A

    Make the day        all the snitches,        wicked witches fan the flame.

Bb                             G          C             D

    careful what you touch in case you burn.

 

      D

Queenie eye, queenie eye, who’s got the ball,

F#m                                                    Am                                  Bb

   I haven’t got it, it isn’t in my pocket. O-U-T spells out: That’s out !

G                                        D                                        F#m

    Without a shadow of a doubt, she's been putting it about,

                              Am                                A

hear the people shout, hear the people shout.

 

    G                           - A

2.     Play the game,         taking chances,

G                            A

    every dance is much the same,

Bb                           G        C              D

    doesn’t matter which event you choose.

G                      - A                               - G                           A

    Never blame      the circumstances,      with romances seldom came,

Bb                     G                 C       D

    never pick a fight you’re gonna lose.

 

+  CHORUS

 

 

 

 

 

          D                      D7                             G

+  It’s long way to the finish where you’ve never been before,

                D                  D7                   G

    I was nervous, but I did it, now I’m going back for more.

 

+  D - F#m - G (2x)

 

               G                A                G             A

+ That’s out, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey, hey, hey, hey !

      Bb            C            D                                  G

    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hear the people shout !

              A              G            A            Bb            C             D

    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey !

 

      D

Queenie eye, queenie eye, who’s got the ball,

F#m                                                    Am                                  Bb

   I haven’t got it, it isn’t in my pocket. O-U-T spells out: That’s out !

G                                        D                                        F#m

    Without a shadow of a doubt, she's been putting it about,

                              Am                               Bb  - G

hear the people shout, hear the people shout.

 

                                                                            D
