[Verse 1]
[C]
It`s started to come to me
Your [F]new career [C]would
[G]probably [C]end like this
All that professional lipstick pressed
into an amateur [G]kiss
[C]Farewell to the studied [F]lines and [C]carefully
broken hearts
The overpowering perfume and
the glimpse [F]of her [C]garter
Mingling [G]with the sweet [C]smoldering
scent of the [F]martyr
Well it`s [C]starting [G]to com[F]e to me (come to me,
come to [G]me)
Starting to [C]come to me

[Verse 2]
[C]
So you began to recognize the
[F]well- dressed man that [G]every[C]body loves
It started when you chopped off all the
fingers of those pony skin [G]gloves
[C]Then you cut a hole out [F]where the
[C]love light [F]used to [C]shine
Your tears of pleasure equal
measure cro[F]codile and [Em]brine
You [C]try to laugh it [G]off saying
[C]"I knew all the [F]time...
But it`s [G]starting to [F]come to me" (come to me,
come to [G]me)
Starting to [C]come to me

[Verse 3]
Some[G]times you bring me down
to play re[D]luctant confidant
You say you may reward him if he
gives you [G]what you want
But [C]these are days to treasure
and to [D]hold
They are much too precious
to be [G]sold
[C]You`d probably play the pirate if you
[D]weren't so busy [G]digging up the [F]gold[G]
[C]Now you could tell

[Verse 4]
he wanted you `cause
[F]you almost taste it [G]on his [C]breath
But you always cheated life just like the
bold dare- devil cheated [G]death
Incident[C]ally, late last night your under
[F]study fi[C]nally [G]got what you de[C]serve
In private she`s seductive but in public she`s prim,
porcelain and [G]nervous[F]
[C]Afraid someone will recog[F]nize
[Em]the shame [F]in her [C]eyes
You've still got your dignity or
the next [F]best [C]disguise
You never know when [G]to say [C]no
and when to comprom[F]ise
But [C]it`s [G]starting to [F]come to me (come to me,
come [C]to [G]me)
Starting to [F]come to me (come to me,
come [C]to me)
[G]Starting to [C]come [G]to me[C]
