Here's the chords/lyrics to "Baby Plays Around" from Elvis Costello's "Spike" album. Someone requested this a while back but it's taken me a while to get around to typing it in.
It's in CHORD format, ie run it through the CHORD program that was recently posted and you get a nice postscript songsheet.
