Pretty Words
Words & Music by: Elvis Costello
>From the album: TRUST

Note: This song was recorded in the key of 
F
 major,
but I transposed it to Gmajor. I am just more used
to the chords in 
G
. For the original key of 
F
 version
please refer to the songbook.
Also, I am not the world's finest transposer, so let
me know what what mistakes you find! thanks,   m.

D

F#m
I don't mean to be mean much anymore
G

All I see are snapshots, bigshots, tender spots

Em
It was a poisoned pen
C
               
D7

D7
 
G
          
D

Between a cruel mouth and a jealous voice

Got back to London

Picked a paper from the man

No words of consolation
                  
D
      
Em
Just cartoons and titter tatter
C
         
D7
 
G
Well well, fancy that
C
                 
D7
 
G

Millions murdered for a kiss me quick hat
             
G
No backbone, blood and guts
D
                   
Em

Better keep your big mouth shut
