Chorus:
        D5                                A5
All the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall
The marble statuettes
             D5
Are standing stately, in the hall, but will the timely crowd,
                                     G5
that has you laughing loud help you, dry your tears
         D5                     A5             D5
When the new wears off of your crystal chande-liers

D5                                 A5
I never did, fit in too well with folks you knew
                                                 D5
And it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
                                       G5
So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
        D5                     A5             D5
And you turned a way from the love I offered you

        D5                                A5
All the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall
The marble statuettes
             D5
Are standing stately, in the hall, but will the timely crowd,
                                     G5
that has you laughing loud help you, dry your tears
         D5                     A5             D5
When the new wears off of your crystal chande-liers

D5                                 A5
I never did, fit in too well with folks you knew
                                                 D5
And it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
                                       G5
So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
        D5                     A5             D5
And you turned a way from the love I offered you

D5                                   A5
I see your picture in the news most every day

You're the chosen girl of the social world
       D5
So the stories say

But a paper smile only last awhile
        G5
Then it fades away
        D5                      A5               D5
And the love we knew will come home to you some day
