Selection chords: Katie Paterson

F7 Gm G#
This girl is made of lipstick, Powder and paint,
C# A#m F# G#
Sees the pictures of herself, every magazine on every shelf.
F7 Gm G#
This girl is Maid of Bond Street, hailing cabs,
C# A#m F# G#
Lunches with executives, gleaming teeth, sipaparatives

F7 D#
This girl is a lonely girl
F7 D#
Takes the train from Banning Turn(?) to Oxford Turn(?)
F7 D#
She reads the daily news but passengers
C# A#m F# G#
Donʼt smile at her, oh no, donʼt smile at her.

F7 Gm G#
This girl is made of loneliness, a broken heart
C# A#m F# G#
For the boy that she once knew doesnʼt want to know her anymore.

F7 D#
And this girl is a lonely girl,
F7 D#
Everything she wants is hers but she canʼt make it
F7 D#
With the boy she really wants to be with
C# A#m F# G#
All the time, to love all the time.

F7 Gm G#
This boy is made of envy, jealosy
C# A#m F# G#
He doesnʼt have a limosine, really wants to be a star himself.

F7 G# A# D# G#
And this girl, her world is made of flashlights and film
G# A# D# G#
Her cares are scratched on the cutting room floor
G# C# F# G#
And Maid of Bond Street, ride ʼround in chauffeured cars
G# C# F# G#
Maid of Bond Street, picture clothes, eyes of stars
G# C# F# G#
Maid of Bond Street, children have love affairs
G# C#
Maid of Bond Street, children have worldly cares.

F# C# C# C# F# G#
