Verse 1:

G                               C                               Am                                    Bm (½)    C (½)      

   So at my show on Monday I was hoping someday,  you'd be on your way to   better                         

G                                         C                                     Am                    Bm (½)    C (½)      

things   It's not about your makeup or how you try to shape up to these tiresome paper

   G         C                 Am            Bm (½)    C (½)    

dreams.        Paper dreams honey.

 

Verse 2

G                                 C                                    Am                                    Bm (½)    C (½)      

So now you pour your heart out telling me you’re far out, you're not about to lie down for your

G                               C                                         Am               Bm (½)          C (½)    

cause,  but you don't pull my strings,  ‘cause I'm a better man, moving on to better things.

 

Chorus

G          D              Am                     C (½)      D (½)         Em

    But o-oh, I love her because she moves in her own way

         C                  Am                          C (½)    D (½)       G (2)

But o-oh, she came to my show just to hear about my day.

 

G                               C                               Am                                    Bm (½)    C (½)     

And at the show on Tuesday, she was in her mindset, tempered furs and spangled boots
G                  C                               Am                        Bm (½)    C (½)     

    Looks are deceiving, make me believe it, and these tiresome paper

   G         C                 Am            Bm (½)    C (½)    

dreams.        Paper dreams honey.


G                      C                                 Am                          Bm (½)    C (½)
    So won’t you go far, tell me you're a keeper, not about to lie down for your

G                               C                                         Am               Bm (½)          C (½)    

cause,  but you don't pull my strings,  ‘cause I'm a better man, moving on to better things.

 

Chorus
