Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
It's in 4/4 time. The clock's ticks start on the 2nd beat of the 1st bar,
then the piano enters on the 1st beat of the 5th bar.
The intro and verse are the same chords in different registers. The second
mini-chorus "Nothing I can do" is the same as the first, moved up one
tone.
Verse 1
My baby
Pretends to be my baby
Does a fine line in deception
What night did she fall
or is it better to know
What I did the night before?
There's nothing I can do
No way that I can hurt myself
Verse 2
My baby
Pretends to be my baby
Does a fine line in deception
His baby <- Ron from Died Pretty!
Pretends to be his baby
She was on the phone last night
There's nothing I can do
No way that I can hurt myself
There's nothing I can say
But I'll be going out - tonight.
Chorus
It's nineteen ninety five (going out)
There's nothing I can do <- Get shivers from Tim's voice here
No way that I can hurt myself
There's nothing I can say
And I'll be going out tonight
Chorus
It's nineteen ninety five (going out)
