Bette Davis Eyes

	  		Bette Davis Eyes - Kim Carnes   - transcribed by Gary Chapman
=============================
 
Part of the "tablature you didn't really want but got anyway" series.

The only recording of this song I have is an ancient and in mono. It's 
missing the start and the finish.  I had trouble deciphering the lyrics.

Intro:
              (Fig.F)
Fig.A  Fig.C  Fig.A    Fig.C
 
 
Verse 1:
                         
Her hair is Harlowe gold (Fig.A)   Lips sweet surprise (Fig.B)
Her hands are never cold (Fig.C)   She's got Bette Davis eyes
 
F            F/A             (Fig.E repeated)
She'll turn the music on you (Fig.C)   You won't have to think twice (Fig.D)
She's pure as New York Snow (Fig.C)     She got Bette Davis eyes (Fig.G)

 
Chorus 1:
 
           Dm                  F                 Bbadd9         F
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you, all the better just to please you.
 
         Dm               F                  Bbadd9          F
She's precocious, and she knows just what it takes to make a pro blush.
 
         B              Dm                      C                 (Fig.E & F)
She's got Greta Garbo's standard size, she's got Bette Davis Eyes (Fig.C) x 2
 

Verse 2:
 
(Fig.E repeated)
She'll let you take her home (Fig.C)  Whets her appetite (Fig.B)
She'll lay you on the throne (Fig.C)  She's got Bette Davis eyes
 
F             F/A    
She'll take a tumble on you (Fig.C)   Roll you like you were dice (Fig.D)
Until you come up blue (Fig.C)  She got Bette Davis eyes
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
She'll expose you when she snows you.
Hope you breathe with the crumbs she throws you.
She's ferocious and she knows just what it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys used to think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes.
