Subject: DRESSING UP by The Cure

 

 

Dressing Up

(words & music by Robert Smith)

 

I love this song, any time I hear it, I think of my friend Annita for some

reason (I have only known her a couple months). Anyway, I am transcribing

the -Paris- version of the song. It really does not make that much of a

difference since I have heard the original and it sounds exactly like

the -Paris- version. I broke the song up into two riffs like these:

 

 

Riff 1 (the tantalizing keyboard riff):

 

Bm C D E5 Em

 

E --------2-3-2----------|------2-3-2-------|--------------|--------------|

B ----0-3-------3-0-0-0--|--0-3-------3-0---|--------------|--------------|

G -----------------------|------------------|--------------|--------------|

D -----------------------|------------------|---2---0--2---|-5--2--0--2---|

A -2---------------------|------------------|--------------|------------2-|

E -----------------------|------------------|-0------------|--------------|

 

 

Riff 2 (The spine-tingling duo notes):

 

C Bm C Bm

 

E ---3---2--3---5---|-2--------|---3---2--3---5---|-2--------|

B ---5---3--5---7---|-3--------|---5---3--5---7---|-3--------|

G ------------------|----------|------------------|----------|

D ------------------|----------|------------------|----------|

A ------------------|----------|------------------|----------|

E ------------------|----------|------------------|----------|

 

 

Those are basically the riffs with the chords on top. The lyrics are:

 

 

{Riff 1}

Going under slowly

It never seems too late

Going under slow

 

{Riff 2}

Dressing up to kiss

Dressing up to touch your lips

 

{Riff 1}

(Dressing up, dressing up)

(Dressing up, dressing up)

I~m dressing up to dance all week

I~m dressing up to be all this

 

{Riff 2}

Dressing up to kiss

Dressing up to be all this

 

Bb A

I could eat your face

Bb A (Riff 1)

I could eat all of you

Oh this night will never let me go...

 

Bb A

Going under slowly

Bb A

Never seems too late

Bb A

Going under slowly

G F Em

There you pick me up again...

 

 

I usually play the chords like this:

 

E A D G B E

-----------

Bm x 2 4 4 3 2

C x 3 5 5 5 x

D x 5 7 7 7 x

E5 x 7 9 9 x x

Em 0 2 2 0 0 0

Bb 6 8 8 7 x x

A 5 7 7 6 x x

G 3 2 0 0 3 3

F 1 3 3 2 1 1

 

 

(And that is all for now- Adios)
