SUGAR MICE (Marillion) [Intro] | G | Cadd9 | G | Cadd9 | [Verse 1] G Cadd9 I was flicking through the channels on the TV G Cadd9 On a Sunday in Milwaukee in the rain G Cadd9 Trying to piece together conversations G Cadd9 Trying to find out where to lay the blame [Chorus] But when it comes right down to it there’s no use trying to pretend For when it gets right down to it Cadd9 there’s no one here that’s left to blame Blame it on me you can blame it on me G Cadd9 We’re just sugar mice in the rain [Verse 2] G Cadd9 I heard Sinatra calling me through the floorboards G Cadd9 Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in rhyme G Cadd9 To the jukebox crying in the corner G Cadd9 While the waitress is counting out the time [Chorus] For when it comes right down to it Am7 Cadd9 there’s no use trying to pretend For when it gets right down to it Cadd9 there’s no one really left to blame Blame it on me you can blame it on me Cadd9 G We’re just sugar mice in the rain [Solo] Cadd9 x8 Cadd9 Cadd9 Cadd9 [Bridge] ’Cause I know what I feel know what I want Cadd9 G Cadd9 I know what I am Daddy took a raincheck ’Cause I know what I want know what I feel Cadd9 G I know what I need Daddy took a raincheck Cadd9 your daddy took a raincheck G Cadd9 Ain’t no one in here that’s left to blame but me Blame it on me blame it on me [Verse 3] Well the toughest thing that I ever did Cadd9 was talk to the kids on the phone When I heard them asking questions Cadd9 I knew that you were all alone G Cadd9 Can’t you understand that the government left me out of work I just couldn’t stand the looks on their faces Cadd9 saying "What a jerk" [Chorus] So if you want my address it’s number one at the end of the bar Where I sit with the broken angels Cadd9 clutching at straws and nursing our scars Blame it on me blame it on me Sugar mice in the rain Cadd9 your daddy took a raincheck G Cadd9 G your daddy took a raincheck
