Beaten To The Punch chords and lyrics - ELVIS COSTELLO

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]You say that you can and then
you run to get your mummy
And you`re almost beaten
to the punch
Looking for the man who
sold you the dummy
And you`re almost beaten
to [F]the [C]pun[Am]ch
Laughing at the older guys
[Dm]who say it`s just as well
[Bb]Saved by the wedding bell
[Ab]Almost [Fm]beaten to the [C]punch

[Verse 2]
[C]You`re looking for somebody new
that you can knock around
You are almost beaten to the punch
If you've got a head for figures then
you`d better count me out
You were almost [Am]beaten to the [F]punch[C]
[Am]You pulled the piece but
you soon [Dm]called it love
You [Bb]go hand in glove
[Ab]Almost [Fm]beaten [Bb]to the p[C]unch

[Verse 3]
Your [Am]body speaks much
[D]louder [B]tha[E]n your voice
[Am]You let it do the talking [B]so[E]
I don`t [C]have any choice

[Verse 4]
[C]
[Bb]Now [C]you find the younger guys
are putting up resistance
And you`re almost beaten to the punch
You better get out now because
you`ll never go the distance
And you`re almost beaten
[Am]to the p[F]unch
[Am]You`ll find a girl and you`ll
[Dm]promise her anything
[Bb]Even a wedding ring
[Ab]Almost [Fm]beaten to the [C]punch
