Dropped-D (au moins la basse)

  F5  C/E  A5    doux

  Standin' in line to see the show tonight
  And there's a light on, heavy glow             (e d)

  By the way I tried to say
  I'd be there, waiting for
  Dani the girl is singing songs to me
  Beneath the marquee, overload

basse  x 4  (~ d d / c^d f  c^d  f^g  fin: e♭)        w/ xxxx   (fin: f5)

Steak knife - card shark - con job - boot cut

Skin that flick she's such a little DJ                w/ Dm7Dm7
Get there quick by street but not the freeway
Turn that trick to make a little leeway
Beat that nic but not the way that we play

Dog town - blood bath - rib cage - soft tail

    F                           C
    Standin' in line to see the show tonight
                  Dm
    And there's a light on, heavy glow
    F            C
    By the way I tried to say
        Am        B♭
    I'd be there, waiting for

basse  x 4  w/ wow wow wow

Black jack - dope dick - pawn shop - quick pick

Kiss that dyke I know you want to hold one
Not on strike but I'm about to bowl one
Bite that mic I know you never stole one
Girls that like a story so I told one

Song bird - main line - cash back - hard top

  Standing in line to see the show tonight
  And there's a light on, heavy glow
  By the way I tried to say
  I'd be there, waiting for

  Dani the girl is singing songs to me
  Beneath the marquee, of her soul
  By the way I tried to say
  I'd be there, waiting for
