Selection chords: Katie Paterson

E7 F#m G
This girl is made of lipstick, Powder and paint,
C Am F G
Sees the pictures of herself, every magazine on every shelf.
E7 F#m G
This girl is Maid of Bond Street, hailing cabs,
C Am F G
Lunches with executives, gleaming teeth, sipaparatives

E7 D
This girl is a lonely girl
E7 D
Takes the train from Banning Turn(?) to Oxford Turn(?)
E7 D
She reads the daily news but passengers
C Am F G
Donʼt smile at her, oh no, donʼt smile at her.

E7 F#m G
This girl is made of loneliness, a broken heart
C Am F G
For the boy that she once knew doesnʼt want to know her anymore.

E7 D
And this girl is a lonely girl,
E7 D
Everything she wants is hers but she canʼt make it
E7 D
With the boy she really wants to be with
C Am F G
All the time, to love all the time.

E7 F#m G
This boy is made of envy, jealosy
C Am F G
He doesnʼt have a limosine, really wants to be a star himself.

E7 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
