The Roches - Stop Performing
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
The very mention of your name
C G
And we hear your voice
Eb
And when you danced
G C D
We came, clapping, no choice
[Verse 2]
G D7
I, in my dress
G7 Eb
And my man in his pants
G D G C G
Yes, yes, yes
[Verse 3]
You have slurped up the moon
C G
With your mouth
Eb
And you've sent
G C D
All the loons flying south
[Verse 4]
G D7
There's no more room
G7 Eb
In the spaces you went
G D G C G
Boom, boom, boom
[Bridge]
E
Stop performing, won't you?
A G F#m Em D
Before I die laughing
[Verse 5]
E Bm A
Please, please sit still
D G Eb
Listen to the sound of space you won't fill
G
With your many talents
C G D7
Gallantly streaming tears down my cheeks
[Verse 6]
G7 Eb G
Oh stop, please stop before I die
D7 G D
I'd love to see you stop performing
G
Before I die
