Slit Skirts - Pete Townshend Chords by twoputt@mac.com Corrections are always welcome. Bbm Ab I was just thirty-four years old and I was still wandering in a haze Gb Eb I was wondering why everyone I met seemed like they were lost in a maze Bbm Ab I don't know why I thought I should have some kind of divine right to the blues Gb Eb It's sympathy not tears people need when they're the front page sad news Bb Eb The incense burned away and the stench began to rise Bb Eb And lovers now estranged avoided catching each others' eyes C7 F7 And girls who lost their children cursed the men who fit the coil C7 F7 And men not fit for marriage took their refuge in the oil D7 G7 No-one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned D7 G7 From all this you'd imagine that there must be something learned... C7 F7 Slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts C7 And I don't ever wear no ripped shirts F7 Can't pretend that growing older never hurts C7 F7 Knee-pants, Jeanie never wears those knee-pants C7 We have to be so drunk to try a new dance F7 So afraid of every little romance... D Slit skirts, slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those D Slit skirts, slit skirts, she wouldn't dare in those D G7 Slit skirts, slit skirts, wouldn't be seen dead in those slit skirts D D Romance, romance, why aren't we thinking up romance?

Bb Eb But unlike me she don't workout her frustrations in the gym. C7 F7 Recriminations fester and the past can never change C7 F7 A woman's expectations run from both ends of the range. D7 G7 Once she walked with untamed lovers face between her legs, D7 G7 Now he's cooled and stifled and it's she who has to beg... C7 F7 Slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts C7 And I don't ever wear no ripped shirts F7 Can't pretend that growing older never hurts C7 F7 Knee-pants, Jeanie never wears those knee-pants C7 We have to be so drunk to try a new dance F7 So afraid of every little romance... D Slit skirts, slit skirts, Jeanie isn't wearing those D Slit skirts, slit skirts, she wouldn't dare in those D G7 Slit skirts, slit skirts, wouldn't be seen dead in those slit skirts D D Romance, romance, why aren't we thinking up romance?
