           D                            A 
Oh the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall 
                                   D 
The marble statuettes are standing stately in the hall 
                                                          G 
But will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud help you dry your tears 
         D                     A             D 
When the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers 



[Verso 1]
 
                                     A 
I never did fit in too well with the folks you knew 
                                                 D 
And it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you 
       D                               G 
So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do 
        D                    A              D    A 
And you turned away from the love I offered you

         D                     A             D

           G       D                A 
I see your picture in the news most every day 
                                                  D 
You're the chosen girl of the social world so the stories say 
                                             G 
But a paper smile only lasts a while then it fades away 
        D                      A                D 
And the love we knew will come home to you some day
