E
A G
Sober in the morning light
D
Things look so much different
A A E
To how they looked last night
A G
A pale face pressed to an unmade bed
D A
Like flags of many nations flying high above her head
A E
The cellophane still on the flowers
G D
The telegram still in her hand
A G
As whispers circulate all day
D A
Their back-stage baby princess passed away
C#m G#m
And you can cage the songbird
Bm F#m
But you can't make her sing
C#m G#m
And you can trap the free bird
Bm F#m
But you'll have to clip her wings
E E E7 E E E7
`Cause she'll soar like a hawk when she flies
E D E A
But she'll dive like an eagle when she dies
G D D A
Ooh! ooh!
A G
Promises of no more lies
D
Fell flat upon an empty stage
A E
Before the audience arrived
A G
A return in time to the cheaper seats
D
She never knew what lay beneath
A
Just a dated handbill they found between the sheets
A E
Let down before the final curtain
G D
A shallow heart that left her cold
A G
She left in rouge upon the mirror
D A
A circled kiss to the faithful fans who'd miss her
(Chorus)
A G D A
Ooh! ooh! ooh!
