Alley Cat Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][C][G]
[D][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Every night downtown on the streets [D]of the
[G]city
[D]When the midnight hour is com[G]in' on
[D]You'll see her come slinkin'
down the alley in a [G]tight dress
She'll walk them streets
till the [D]break [G]of dawn
[D]Well she'll slip away for[G]e
the sun starts [A]rising[G]
When the daylight comes
she's gonna be long [A]gone

[Verse 2]
[D]Don't you ever come down
here looking for trouble
Cause trouble is the ladies' middle name
You may think you're bad but
let me tell you somethin'
[G]There ain't no way you're gonna
play her [D]game
She'll make you feel like a fool
with a [A]hole in your pocket
[G]Like you've been run over by a
choo choo [D]train[G][A][G][D]

[Verse 3]
She [D]purrs and she growls and she
rambles and she prowls
And she's [G]evil and she's mean
like [D]a misery machine
She's a [G]little bit of [A]this and a whole
lot of [G]that [A]like an alley cat[G][F]

[Verse 4]
[D]Better stay away from
the midnight lady
[G]She'll [D]leave you standing on the
corner with a mess of the [G]blues
[D]She's an accident looking
for a place [G]to happen
She'll make you an offer
that you can't re[D]fuse
[A]If [G]she[D] ever gets them claws into you[A]
[G]She'll turn you every which
a way but [D]loose

[Verse 5]
And she [D]purrs and she [G]growls...

[Outro 1]
Well she purrs and she growls...
