Am            F               C       G 
It's these substandard motels on the (lalalalala) 
Am        F       C       E 
corner of 4th and Fremont Street. 
Am        F                     C         G 
Appealing only because they are just that unappealing, 
E                                                      Am 
Any practiced catholic would cross themselves upon entering. 
Am        F                C          G 
The rooms have a hint of asbestos and maybe 
Am     F       C       E 
just a dash of formaldehyde, 
Am      F             C      G 
And the habit of decomposing right before your 
Am    F        C    E 
very (lalalala) eyes.

What a wonderful caricature of intimacy 
Am     F        C        G   Am       F  C     E 
Inside,  what a wonderful  caricature of intimacy

Tonight tenants range from: a lawyer and a virgin 
       Am                   C 
Accessorizing with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie 
      Am                   F 
She's getting a job at the firm come Monday. 
    C                       G 
The Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney 
    Am                  F 
moonlighting aside, she really needs his money. 
    C                       E 
Oh, wonderful caricature of intimacy. 
E 
Yeah (Yeah)

And not to mention, the constable, and his proposition, for that virgin 
         F                        C 
Yes, the one the lawyer met with on strictly business 
E                 Am 
as he said to the Mrs. Well, only hours before, 
F              C                      G            Am 
after he had left, she was fixing her face in a compact 
            Dm       E 
There was a terrible crash (there was a terrible crash) 
Am                  F 
Between her and the badge 
                              C               G                    E 
She spilled her purse and her bag, and held a purse of a different kind.

There are no raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses.

It's sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses

At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains,
