DmDm - A minorAm
1. She wears mystic lipstick, she wears stones and bones,
Bb majorBb C majorC A minorAm
she tells myth and 🏷Legend, she sings rock and roll.

She wears chains of bondage, she wears wings of hope,
Bb majorBb C majorC A minorAm
she wears the gown of plenty, and still it's hard to cope.
