Main Riff:
Bottom E -1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3-1-1-3
Verse One:
Main riff -------------------------------------
She's a feline tormentor, not any vaudeville wife
----------------------------
But with a drunk-town lament
----------------------------
He leads her a miserable life
[C7]But when he[G]'s full of[E7] that beer[C]-champagne
No Chord
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
Verse Two:
Main Riff-------------------------------------
And if he should wake up in some terrible dive
-------------------------------
And he don't know if he's so-so
--------------------------------
But he's so surprised he's alive
[C7]"Come on li[G]ttle honey[E7], let me u[C]nder your hive"
No Chord
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
Bridge:
Main Riff--------------------
[B7]She pads, pads around the bedroom,
[A7]Practicing [C]ways to [E7]flirt
He p[A7]aws, pours another[C] drink and any[B7]thing in a skirt
Any[C7]thing wearing a necklace
B7 ----------------------------------
He thinks of claws scratching his back
----------------------------------------
he's going out there he's not coming back
Verse 3
Main Riff------------------
She's got spider-leg fingers,
----------------------------
Sharpened whenever he strays
----------------------------
And she carries a bird-purse,
----------------------------
With all of her womanly ways
----------------------------
While he's drinking hairspray,
---------------------------------
She knows that he never would dare
--------------------------------------------------------
She could be in pictures if she wasn't all covered in fur
[C7]He's coming[G] home now [E7]and here's[C] the surprise
[C7]You wouldn'[G]t believe [E7]the lies t[C]hat he tries
[C7]She cut him[G] down to h[E7]er favouri[C]te size
No Chord
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
Main Riff---------------------------
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
