CAPO ON 2RD

INTRO:
A5 A5 A5 A5

VERSE 1:

A5
She stands before the mirror
A5
Smiles at her reflection
A5            E5            A5
Striking sexy poses in the glass
A5
She paints her lips a brilliant red
A5
Piles her hair high on her head
A5             E5                A5
Struggles to replace a false eyelash
    E5
She powders up her face
           D5
Paints her cheeks to match her lips

She wears a dress cut low in the front
         A5
Fittin  tight around her hips
    E5
And there inside her room
             D5
She stands and gazes at herself
      E5
Where beauty lives in memory
D5                 A5
She lives in fairy tales

Chorus:

A5
Mirror, mirror on the wall
A5
Who's the fairest of them all
A5                     E5                  A5
She sings as she goes waltzing cross the floor
A5
She keeps a candle burning
A5
And she waits for his returning
A5                    
When beauty lives in memory
E5                A5 
It lives forever more

VERSE 2:

A5
She was a fairy princess once
A5
And was by all adored
A5                    E5               A5
They say she was the fairest of them all
A5
They called her cinderella
A5
And they say that every fella
A5                   E5               A5
Would gladly answer to her beck and call
E5
So the story went
D5
They tell of how this handsome prince
A5                   E5            A5
Stole her heart and wandered far away
A5
He took her heart and took her mind
A5
Now she has lost all track of time
A5               E5                    A5
Forty years has passed and still she waits singing

Chorus:

A5
Mirror, mirror on the wall
A5
Who's the fairest of them all
A5                     E5                  A5
She sings as she goes waltzing cross the floor
A5
She keeps a candle burning
A5
And she waits for his returning
A5                    
When beauty lives in memory
E5                A5 
It lives forever more

VERSE 3:

A5
Meanwhile back inside her room
A5
The shads are pulled it's half past noon 
A5                        E5           A5
But in her mind why it's forty years ago
A5
She recalls the beauty of their love
A5
She remembers he was beautiful
A5                 
And of course she always knew she was
E5                  A5
And so the past unfolds
E5
And all at once inside her mind
    D5
She sees him at the door
A5
And as he's leading her away 

She feels the room begin to sway

Where beauty lives in memory
          E5              A5
She falls dead upon the floor


A5
Mirror, mirror on the wall
A5
Who's the fairest of them all
