INTRO:
C Csus C Csus

VERSE 1:

 C
She stands before the mirror

 Csus
Smiles at her reflection

 C        G       C
Striking sexy poses in the glass

 C
She paints her lips a brilliant red

 Csus
Piles her hair high on her head

 C        G         C
Struggles to replace a false eyelash

   G
She powders up her face

      F
Paints her cheeks to match her lips


She wears a dress cut low in the front
     C
Fittin tight around her hips

   G
And there inside her room

        F
She stands and gazes at herself

    G
Where beauty lives in memory

 F          C
She lives in fairy tales

Chorus:

 C
Mirror, mirror on the wall

 Csus
Who's the fairest of them all

 C            G          C
She sings as she goes waltzing cross the floor

 C
She keeps a candle burning

 Csus
And she waits for his returning

 C
When beauty lives in memory

 G         C
It lives forever more


VERSE 2:

 C
She was a fairy princess once

 Csus
And was by all adored

 C           G         C
They say she was the fairest of them all

 C
They called her cinderella

 Csus
And they say that every fella

 C           G         C
Would gladly answer to her beck and call

 G
So the story went

 F
They tell of how this handsome prince

 C           G       C
Stole her heart and wandered far away

 C
He took her heart and took her mind

 C
Now she has lost all track of time

 C         G           C
Forty years has passed and still she waits singing


Chorus:

 C
Mirror, mirror on the wall

 Csus
Who's the fairest of them all

 C            G          C
She sings as she goes waltzing cross the floor

 C
She keeps a candle burning

 Csus
And she waits for his returning

 C
When beauty lives in memory

 G         C
It lives forever more


VERSE 3:

 C
Meanwhile back inside her room

 Csus
The shads are pulled it's half past noon

 C             G       C
But in her mind why it's forty years ago

 C
She recalls the beauty of their love

 Csus
She remembers he was beautiful

 C
And of course she always knew she was

 G          C
And so the past unfolds

 G
And all at once inside her mind

   F
She sees him at the door

 C
And as he's leading her away


She feels the room begin to sway

Where beauty lives in memory
      G        C
She falls dead upon the floor


 C
Mirror, mirror on the wall

 Csus
Who's the fairest of them all
