intro: Bm C#m [2x] [Verse 1] BmWhere (x24432@1)a little girl once stood C#mNow (x13321@4)sits an empty base Cold and shiny Hard and tiny F# (244322@1) Em (022000@1) D (xx0232@1) F#Difficult (244322@1)to wash away Goh, (320003@1)monsters get creative every day. BmAnd (x24432@1)nothing can prepare you for the day they run away C#mYour (x13321@4)fine tutelage is no longer needed So you've sealed your fate BmOne (x24432@1)minute, she's your best friend Then you watch her take your place C#mI (x13321@4)guess that taught them all the same F# (244322@1) AYou (x02220@1)clever little charlatans D (xx0232@1) GAmbition (320003@1)gleams in overdrive AAnd (x02220@1)I can't take it [Chorus] BWhat (x2444x@1)goes up must come on down Get your feet back on the ground GNarcissus (320003@1)in a red dress You're like all the rest, Miss BBlinded (x2444x@1)by your own reflection Let the lights direct you now GNarcissus (320003@1)in a red dress BmYou're (x24432@1)like all the rest, I know. C#mI (x13321@4)know. [Verse 2] Behave and like the Virgin Queen You're just as damaged underneath You know, No matter how good your impersonation of me ever grows, Deep down you know your insides never change But people love it, vapid and shamesless, simply lacking taste They fall for the spell of Lady Macbeth Her calculated grace But I can see the hunger of compulsion in your face High school skinny fades away And you're just left with Polaroids capturing your fifteen minutes Ain't it great? [Chorus repeated] BmVanity (x24432@1)on parade C#Vacant, (x43121@1)frantic, and strange Fraught with heartache and desperation BmGuess (x24432@1)I loved you in vain, C#Consider (x43121@1)this song your wake Lost your head to the elevation F# (244322@1) Em (022000@1) D (xx0232@1) F#All (244322@1)the king's horses and all the king's men G (320003@1) ACouldn't (x02220@1)bring you back again [Chorus repeated]
