#Vicar In A Tutu
# (Morrissey/Marr)
#
#Basically this song (off of the luxurious Queen Is Dead album) is all simple
#chords with that Johnny Marr touch. The E chord during the verse, for
#example, is played by stroking the high E string and then moving up with the
#stroke. It is not that difficult. Here it is:
#
[E]I was minding my business lifting some lead off
[E]The roof of the Holy Name Church
[E]It was worthwhile living a laughable life
[E]Just to set my eyes on a blistering sight
Of a vicar in a [C#m]tutu
He~s not strange
He just [A]wants to live his life this [B]way
[E]A scanty bit of a thing with a decorative ring
[E]That wouldn~t cover the head of a child
[E]As Rose collects the money in the cannister
[E]Who comes sliding down the banister
The vicar in a [C#m]tutu
He~s not strange
He just [A]wants to live his life this [B]way
[E]The monkish monsignor with a head full of plaster
[E]Said, -my man, get your vile soul dry-cleaned-
[E]As Rose counts the money in the cannister
[E]As natural as rain he dances again
Vicar in a [C#m]tutu
Oh yeah
Oh [A]yeah.[B]..
[E] [E] [E] [E]
Vicar in a [C#m]tutu
Oh yeah
Oh [A]yeah...[B]
[E]The next day in the pulpit with freedom and ease
[E]Combating ignorance, dust and disease
[E]As Rose counts the money in the cannister
[E]As natural as raihe dances again and again and again
And the fabric of a [C#m]tutu
Any man could get used to
And [A]I am a living [B]sign
I~m a living [C#m]sign....[A] [B]
I~m a living [C#m]sign....[A] [B]
that is basically the song in it~s entirety...
-----so i broke into the palace
with a sponge and a rusty spanner
she said, "i know you, and you cannot sing"
i said, "that's nothing you should hear me play piano"
