[Verse 1]
[D]When nobody knows
she puts on secret clothes
And lies in the meadow with
her hands tied behind her back
I won't refuse if you know [G]how to use it
[D]Just stop playing that [A]ugly [G]drug music

[Verse 2]
[D]Thirteen [A]steps lead [G]down[A]
[D]Thirteen [A]steps lead [G]down[A]
There's [Bm]commoners and kings
[F#m]And everyo[G]ne's a prisoner of
Paper and glue
And a decent pair of [A]scissors
[Bm]So t[G]onight I'm drinking
to your [A]health[Bm]
Because [G]I just can't stand [A]myself
[D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
Thirteen [A]steps lead [G]down[A]
[D]Thirteen [A]steps lead [G]down[A]

[G]Thirteen steps [A]lead [Em]down[A]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]She stands and f[Em]ails
On [G]fashion finger[D]nails
Her [E]lovers have her walking 'round
On [G]instruments of [A]torture
And [G]one [Bm]of t[E]hem is p[G]oisono[D]us
The [G]other is a thief they [D]say
[Bm]So what on[Em]e could gi[G]ve to her
[D]The oth[E]er cannot take awa[G]y

[Verse 5]
When [G]nobody [D]kno[C]ws she
[A]puts on [G]secret clothes
And lies in [C]her splendor for a
[A]picture oppor[G]tunity
[D]Cover up that [C]bruise,
put on [D]patent [G]leather shoes
Just stop [D]playing [C]that [A]bad
[G]mood music baby

[D]Thirteen [A]steps [G]lead down
There's [Bm]commoners and kings
[G]And everyone's a prisoner of
[Bm]Paper and glue[G]
And a decent pair of scis[A]sors
[Bm]So t[G]onight I'm drinking
to your [A]health[Bm]
Because I [G]just can't stand my[A]self
