[Verse 1] Tattoo Fine works of art Painted all over you Pretty as a picture Carefully you choose Tattoo Flowers in bloom A picture of you Now you've got no room Tattoo Tattoo [Pre-Chorus] Feel me begin Needles on your skin There’s a little pain As the needle digs in [Chorus] Tattoo blues Deep in regret Blame it on the booze Painted in black Tattoo blues She looks so sad Burning like fire Can’t take it back [Verse 2] Tattoo Names from the past Promises written down You thought they’d last Tattoo Under your sleeve Memories you can hide But never really leave Tattoo Tattoo [Pre-Chorus] Feel me begin Needles on your skin There’s a little pain As the needle digs in [Chorus] Tattoo blues Deep in regret Blame it on the booze Painted in black Tattoo blues She looks so sad Burning like fire Can’t take it back [Bridge] Cover it over Colour on colour One mistake hiding another Under the surface Under your skin You can change the picture But you can’t change where you’ve been Tattoo Tattoo [Final Chorus] Tattoo blues Deep in regret Blame it on the booze Trying to forget Tattoo blues She looks so sad Burning like fire Can’t take it back Tattoo blues Faded and blue Every little scar Tells a story of you Tattoo blues Written in black You can cover the memory But you can’t take it back [Outro] Tattoo Tattoo Under your skin Tattoo
