VERSE
E7sus4 [break]               Am   
 Here lies the powder and perfume
Am/G                               B7    F7  E7
 The pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room
         Dm7
And it's so like Candy


VERSE
E7sus4 [break]                  Am   
 Here lies the lipstick and the face

So ... like Candy


VERSE
E7sus4 [break]            Am   
 Here lies a picture of a girl
Am/G                            B7 F7 E7
 Her arms are tight around that lucky guy
         Dm7
And it's so like Candy


VERSE
E7sus4 [break]             Am   
 And in her eyes a certain look
Am/G                            B7   F7  E7
 I thought I'd seen the last of long a - go
         Dm7
And it's so like Candy
        Gsus4 G
So like Candy

So ... 


MIDDLE 8
    Fm                  G#
I remember the day that picture was taken
G#         C
We were so happy then
G                  C
But that's so like Candy
Fm                         G#
She seemed so sweet to me, I was mistaken
G#        C
Oh no not that again
G                  C 
But that's so like Candy
               G        C
She just can't face the day
G                      [Am]
So she turns and melts away

VERSE
E7sus4 [break]                  Am   
 Here lie the records that she scratched
Am/G                        B7   F7 E7
 And on the sleeve I find a note attached
         Dm7
And it's so like Candy


VERSE
E7sus4 [break]                Am   
 "My Darling Dear it's such a waste"
Am5+                             Am6           Am7
 She couldn't say "Goodye", but "I admire your taste"
         Dm7
And it's so like Candy
Dm7
So like Candy
