D#7 Fm F#
This girl is made of lipstick, Powder and paint,
B G#m E F#
Sees the pictures of herself, every magazine on every shelf.
D#7 Fm F#
This girl is Maid of Bond Street, hailing cabs,
B G#m E F#
Lunches with executives, gleaming teeth, sipaparatives

D#7 C#
This girl is a lonely girl
D#7 C#
Takes the train from Banning Turn(?) to Oxford Turn(?)
D#7 C#
She reads the daily news but passengers
B G#m E F#
Donʼt smile at her, oh no, donʼt smile at her.

D#7 Fm F#
This girl is made of loneliness, a broken heart
B G#m E F#
For the boy that she once knew doesnʼt want to know her anymore.

D#7 C#
And this girl is a lonely girl,
D#7 C#
Everything she wants is hers but she canʼt make it
D#7 C#
With the boy she really wants to be with
B G#m E F#
All the time, to love all the time.

D#7 Fm F#
This boy is made of envy, jealosy
B G#m E F#
He doesnʼt have a limosine, really wants to be a star himself.

D#7 F# G# C# F#
And this girl, her world is made of flashlights and film
F# G# C# F#
Her cares are scratched on the cutting room floor
F# B E F#
And Maid of Bond Street, ride ʼround in chauffeured cars
F# B E F#
Maid of Bond Street, picture clothes, eyes of stars
F# B E F#
Maid of Bond Street, children have love affairs
F# B
Maid of Bond Street, children have worldly cares.

E B B B E F#
