Lyrics & chords
[Verse 1] [G]The[C] ni[G]ght[C] my[G] baby left me [C]I crossed the bridge to Juarez aven[G]ue Like that movie "Touch of evil" I got the [C]Orson Wells, Marlene Dietrich [G]blues Where Orson walks in to the whore house and [C]Marlene says "Man, you look like hel[G]l" And Orson's chewing on a chocolate bar As the [C]lights go on in the old Blue Star [G]hotel "Read my [C]fu ture" says old Orson, "down inside the tea leaves of your cup" [Bm]And she [C]says "You [Am]ain't got no future, [C]Hank, I believe your fu[D]ture's all [G]used up" [Verse 2] [Chorus] Why don't [C]you touch me anymore? Why don't you [G]touch me anymore? Why do you [D]run away and hide? You know it [G]hurts me deep inside Why do you [C]close the bedroom door? This is a [G]brutal little war What good is [D]all this fightin' for if you don't [C]touch me anymore? [G] [Verse 3] They shot "A touch of evil" in a [C]Venice, California [G]colony And I grew near those dead canals Where they [C]filmed the longest pan shot ever [G]made Now I'm thinking about the movie, [C]the bar I'm in, the bridge, the Rio [G]Grande Now I'm thinking about my baby and the [C]borderline 'tween a woman and a [G]man I was [C]drunk as Orson Wells the night I crawled backwards out [Bm]the door [C]I w[Am]as screaming "Baby, [C]baby how come you touch me anymore?" [D] [Interlude 1] [C][G][D][G] [C] [Verse 4] [Chorus] [C]Oh, [G][D][C][G] [C]som[G]eon[C]e r[G]olled the credits on [C]twenty years of love turned dark and [G]raw Not a technicolor love film, it's a [C]brutal document, it's film [G]noir And it's all played out on a borderline and the [C]actors are tragically [G]miscast Like a Mexican burlesque show where the [C]characters are wearing comic [G]masks [C]Oh, it's love and love alone I cry to the barmen in this Juarez water[Bm]hole As we [Am]raise a glass to Orson and "A [C]touch of evil" livin' our souls [D][Chorus] [Outro 1] [D][C][G][D][G] [C] [G][D][C] [G][C][G][C][G][C]
