Dishonest Modesty chords by Carly Simon

Chords with lyrics

C7C7
You come on strong telling everyone
About your latest role
     F7F7
How you saved the movie, stole the show
So you've been told

       C7C7
And if you have no time for all your offers
You'll see that I get called
      F7F7
And if you have no time for all your men
You'll see that I get balled


     G7G7
Well I don't expect humility
   F7F7
But what about some good old
      C7C7
Dishonest modesty

   C7C7
You say that you can understudy
All the other parts
        F7F7
That you can write a song that will make us cry
And touches all our hearts
   C7C7
And you can House and Garden
Vogue and Glamour, Mademoiselle
    F7F7
Well, I know you can Bitch and Screw
And Penthouse just as well

     G7G7
No I don't expect humility
   F7F7
But what about some good old
      C7C7
Dishonest modesty

C7C7
You try to be unique
But somehow something's wrong
    F7F7
Your flower childish vision of life
Cannot last too long
    C7C7
You're over thirty and underweight
Though you call yourself petite
F7F7
And you hang around with all the clowns
Who think they're so elite


     G7G7
Well I don't expect humility
   F7F7
But what about some good old
      C7C7
Dishonest modesty
     G7G7
No I don't expect humility
   F7F7
But what about some good old
      C7C7
