                    C                    G
If you had the real thing, how would you tell?

          F
Liars can say it all just as well

      C        G                  F
Every single word you've heard in vain

           C                   G
Baubles of gold, stars in your hair

                 F
Reflections that told you they were not there

        C                   G                  F
And the diamonds on your cheeks have turned to flames

              G               C          Am
And up in the air, they would write your name there

    F          G       E      Am
But love would fall to pieces in the rain

Am             G                   G            F
Who would know better than you?  A hundred love letters and none of them true

C                 G   F
Christina, oh-wah-oh, yeah

C                 G   F
Christina, oh-wah-oh, yeah

It's a wondrous world of ridiculous things
With nothing so rare as the love that it brings
In the silence of a smile that understands
A piece of the action, pieces of gold
Everyone's paid well and does what they're told
For the simple daughter of a simple man

And up in the air, they would write your name there
But love would fall to pieces in the rain
Who would know better than you?  A hundred love letters and none of them true
Christina, oh-wah-oh, yeah
Christina, oh-wah-oh, yeah

C                 G              F
Christina, oh-wah-oh-wah oh-wah, yeah

C                 G              D        F         C
Christina, oh-wah-oh-wah oh-wah, ye - e - ah
