-VERSE-
                     A minorAm
Wake up in the morning you feel out of place

You're a disgrace
   G minorGm      Fsus4Fsus4 C majorC  FF
Once more with resigna-----tion

                    A minorAm
The world won't appreciate greatness today

But there's bills to be paid
     G minorGm     Fsus4Fsus4 C majorC  Gm7Gm7
So you stumble to the sta-----tion

-PRE-CHORUS-
                     C*
You're wearing your most imperceptible frown
                       Gm7Gm7
These people are adjectives to your proper noun
                          C*
As you wash through the streets of this phony old town

It's wearing you down

-CHORUS-
         FF
And yet there you are
     C majorC              DmDm
Standing out in your favourite blue dress
      Fsus4Fsus4
Hair is a mess
       FF
Nevertheless
   C majorC     DmDm Fsus4Fsus4
Cleopatra in Broo--klyn

-VERSE-
                   A minorAm
You casually shed poetry like your clothes

In neat little rows
     G minorGm     Fsus4Fsus4 C majorC  FF
On the floor of my hotel  room

                     A minorAm
You'd always dreamed that you'd be a princess

But you'd accept less
     G minorGm           Fsus4Fsus4 C majorC  Gm7Gm7
Holding court holed-up in your be-----droom


-PRE-CHORUS-
                     C*
And I'd say I was Antony begging at your door
                          Gm7Gm7
But I know that you'd laugh and just ask me what for
                       C*
And then just roll your eyes as I fell the floor

And swear that I'm yours


-CHORUS-
         FF
And yet there you are
     C majorC              DmDm
Standing out in your favourite blue dress
      Fsus4Fsus4
Hair is a mess
       FF
Nevertheless
   C majorC     DmDm Fsus4Fsus4
