Em
My old man is a bad man but
I canʼt deny the way he holds my hand
     Am                Em
And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesnʼt mind I have a Las Vegas past
                          Am
He doesnʼt mind I have an LA crass way about me
                Em
He loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart

Em
Swimming pool glimmering darling
White bikini off with my red nail polish
Am
Watch me in the swimming pool bright blue ripples
           Em
You sit sippinʼ on your black Cristal, yeah

Em
Light of my life, fire of my loins
Be a good baby, do what I want
Am
Light of my life, fire of my loins
                 Em
Give me them gold coins, gimme them coins

             Em
And Iʼm off to the races, cases
of Bacardi chasers, chasinʼ me all over town
           Am
Cuz he knows Iʼm wasted, facing
Time again on Rikerʼs Island and I wonʼt get out
        D
Because Iʼm crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
           C
Iʼm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth
       Em
Ready for you

Em
My old man is a tough man but
He got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
     Am
And he shows me, he knows me
    Em
Every inch of my tar black soul
He doesnʼt mind I have a flat broke down life
                                 Am
In fact he says he thinks itʼs why he might like about me
               Em
Admires me, the way I roll like a Rolling Stone

Em
Likes to watch me in the glass room bathroom, Chateau Marmont
Slippinʼ on my red dress, puttinʼ on my makeup
Am                    Em
Glass room perfume Cognac lilac fume
Says it feels like heaven to him

Em
Light of his life, fire of his loins
Keep me forever, tell me you own me
Am
Light of your life, fire of your loins
Em
Tell me you own me, gimme them coins

             Em
And Iʼm off to the races, cases
of Bacardi chasers, chasinʼ me all over town
                 Am
Cuz he knows Iʼm wasted, facing
Time again on Rikerʼs Island and I wonʼt get out
        D
Because Iʼm crazy, baby I need you to come here and save me
           C
Iʼm your little scarlet, starlet singing in the garden
Kiss me on my open mouth

             Em
Now Iʼm off to the races, laces
Leather on my waist is tight and I am fallinʼ down
          Am
I can see your face is shameless, Ciprianiʼs basement
Love you but Iʼm going down
       D
God Iʼm so crazy, baby, Iʼm sorry that Iʼm misbehaving
           C
Iʼm your little harlot, starlet, Queen of Coney Island
Raising hell all over town
        Em
Sorry ʼbout it

Am                                    Em
My old man is a thief and Iʼm gonna stay
and pray with him ʼtil the end
    D                    Am
But I trust in the decision of the lord to watch over us
Take him when he may, if he may
Em                    D
Iʼm not afraid to say that Iʼd die without him
            Am
Who else is gonna put up with me this way?
I need you, I breathe you, I never leave you
Em                  D
They would rue the day I was alone without you
Am
Youʼre lying with your gold chain on,
cigar hanging from your lips
                        Em        D
I said "Honʼ you never looked so beautiful
as you do now, my man."

              Em
And weʼre off to the races, places
Ready, set the gate is down and now weʼre goinʼ in
     Am
to Las Vegas pay us, Casino Oasis, honey it is time to spin
          D
Boy youʼre so crazy, baby, I love you forever not maybe
        C                          Em Am D
You are my one true love, you are my one true love
       C
You are my one true love

Em Am D C
