#Intro:
#
#Am Am/B C C/D F F1 (two times)
#
[Am] This is the [Am/B]place where I [C]made my best mi[F]stakes[F1]
[Am] This is the [Am/B]place even [C]angels don't under[D]stand
[Am] I've seen the [Am/B]disapp[C]ointment in her [F]face
And the [D]collection of en[Bm]gagement rings[C] on her right [D]hand
[Am] She sits [Am/B]alone a[C]part from the [F]crowd[F1]
In a [Am]white dress[Am/B] she wears [C]like a question [D]mark
[Am] Friends speak o[Am/B]f her [C]fondly
Enemies just think out [F]loud
You think you're [D]man enough to [Bm]please her
And you're [C]fool enough to [D]start
[G] You're not going to do a thing[C] to our little [G]angel
[D] There's nothing you're thinking tonight[C] that tomorrow won't [D]change
Now the cabaret is frozen and the laughter comes in cans
And the lonely hearts club clientele don't know what to do
with their hands
You think that you'll be sweet to her but everybody knows
That you're the marshmallow valentine that got stuck on her clothes
You're not going to do a thing to our little angel
There's nothing you're thinking tonight that tomorrow won't [F]change
(Chords through solo:)
[D] [D] [G] [D] [A] [A] [G] [C] [A] So you mix your drinks and words
You make bad jokes you make bad time
The floors are there to walk over
The walls are there to climb
You swear you'll never go back again once you're inside
You're never the bridegroom she's always the bride
You're not going to do a thing to our little angel
There's nothing you're thinking tonight that tomorrow won't change
[G] You'll come in a sweetheart and you'll[C] go out a [G]stranger
Well you [D]try to love her but she's so contrary
Like a chainsaw running through a dictionary
So get your mind off the sweet behind of[C] our little [D]ang[G]el
[G] You're not going to do a thing
You're not going to do a thing
You're not going to [Em]do a thing[D] to our little angel[G]

[Am]This is the p[Am6]lace
Where I m[C]ade my best [F]mis[Fmaj7]takes
[Am]This is the p[Am6]lace
Even an[C]gels don't unde[D]rstand
[Am]I've s[Am6]een the disapp[C]ointment
In her[F] fa[Fmaj7]ce
And the coll[D]ection of eng[Bm]agement rings
[C]On her right[D] hand
[Am]She sits a[Am6]lone ap[C]art
From the[F] cr[Fmaj7]owd
In a w[Am]hite dres[Am6]s
She wears l[C]ike a question m[D]ark
[Am]Friends s[Am6]peak of her fo[C]ndly
Enemies just think ou[F]t l[Fmaj7]oud
You think you're m[D]an enough to pl[Bm]ease her
And you're f[C]ool enough to st[D]art
[G]You're not going to do a thing[C] to our little an[G]gel
[D]There's nothing you're thinking tonight
[C]That tomorrow won't ch[D]ange
Now the ca[Am]baret is f[Am6]rozen
And the lau[C]ghter comes i[F]n c[Fmaj7]ans
And the lo[Am]nely h[Am6]eart's club cli[C]entele
Don't know what to do with their ha[D]nds
You t[Am]hink that y[Am6]ou'll be sw[C]eet to her
But everybody[F] kn[Fmaj7]ows
That yo[D]u're the marshmellow val[Bm]entine
That got st[C]uck on her clo[D]thes
[G]You're not going to do a thing[C] to our little an[G]gel
[D]There's nothing you're thinking tonight
[C]That tomorrow won't ch[F]ange
So you [Am]mix your d[Am6]rinks and wo[C]rds
You make bad jokes you make ba[F]d t[Fmaj7]ime
The fl[Am]oors are t[Am6]here to w[C]alk over
The walls are there to cl[D]imb
You s[An]wear you'll n[Am6]ever go b[C]ack again
Once you're[F] in[Fmaj7]side
Yo[D]u're never the bri[Bm]degroom
S[C]he's always the br[D]ide
[G]You're not going to do a thing[C] to our little an[G]gel
[D]There's nothing you're thinking tonight
[C]That tomorrow won't ch[D]ange
[G]You'll come in a sweetheart and you'll[C] go out a stranger
Well you t[D]ry to lover her but she's so contrary
Like a cha[D7]insaw running through a dictionary
So get your mind off the sweet behind of o[C]ur little an[D]gel
[G]You're not going to do a thing
[G]You're not going to do a thing
[G]You're not going to do a thing
You're not going to [Em]do a thing [D]to our little an[G]gel
