Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
Written by Carole King & Elvis Costello
[Intro]
Dm E (x2)
[Verse 1]
Am G F
She said, what is it that I've done that you want me to be punished
Am G F
As she woke up one day to find he had started to vanish
G
If you overhear voices
Dm G
Perhaps you should not be listening
Dm F
Twitch the vigilant lace,
G
Make a sly, sour face,
Asus4 A
Set the scandalous whispering
[Chorus]
Em D A
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
Em D A
As the kids paint him out of their refrigerator pictures
Dm
She picks up the bills
Em
Pays off the babysitter
F F Dm E
'Cause everybody knows burnt sugar is so bitter
[Instrumental]
Dm E (x3)
[Bridge]
Bm Em7
Once there was a time
Bm Em7
Before he turned strange
Am C
She thought they would be together for more than a lifetime
Bm Em7
Look at him now
Bm Em7
My, how things have changed
F Em
He could tear the sweetheart out of any girl
Bm E7
On just a whim
C Am
And turn it from a candy to a caramel
Bm Em
Then make her hate the silly way she used to feel
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 F
And say, I know nothing about him
[Instrumental]
Dm E (x2)
[Verse 2]
Am G F
Now what's left of the birthday cake is very beautifully frosted
Am G F
An absent father picks up the phone to find the number's unlisted
G
And while the kids are distracted
Dm G Dm
They don't notice she's nervous at all
F
But how long it will take
G
Not to make a mistake
Asus4 A
When a gentleman comes to call
[Chorus 2]
Em D A
She's out on her own with the rest of her riches
Em D A
As the kids tear down their refrigerator pictures
Dm Em
They already know how a woman may advance
F Em
From a pretty picture hat to a supermarket trance
Dm Em
But if he's unkind he might as well forget her
F
'Cause everybody knows
F Dm E
burnt sugar is so bitter
Dm E Dm E
Burnt sugar is so bitter
Dm E
Burnt sugar
[Outro]
Dm E
