[Intro] D/F#Em7C9D/F#GC9G
[Primera Parte]
D/F#
Her name was Kitty
Em7
Made her money being pretty and witty
C9D/F#
They gave her the keys to this city
Em7C9
Then they said she didn't do it legitly
D/F#
I bought a ticket
Em7
She’s dancing in her garters and fishnets
C9D/F#
Fifty in the cast, zero missteps
Em7C9
Looking back I guess it was kismet
[Pre-Estribillo]
D/F#Em7
I waited by the stage door packed in with the autograph hounds
C9D/F#
Barking her name then glowing like the end of a cigarette, (wow) she came out
Em7C9
I said, "You'rе living my dream."
A4
Then she said to mе
[Estribillo]
D/F#Em7
"Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
C9
You're sweeter than a peach
D/F#Bm7C9
But you don’t know the life of a showgirl, babe
G
And you're never, ever gonna
D/F#Em7
Wait, the more you play the more that you pay
C9
You're softer than a kitten so
D/F#Bm7C9
You don’t know the life of a showgirl, babe
G
And you're never gonna wanna"
[Segunda Parte]
G
She was a menace
Am
The baby of the family in Lenox
F2G
Her father whored around like all men did
AmF2
Her mother took pills and played tennis
G (mute) am
So she waited by the stage door as the club promoter arrived
F2G
She said, "I'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life, that's all mine."
AmF2
But that's not what showgirls get
F2
They leave us for dead
[Estribillo]
D/F#Em7
"Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet
C9
You're sweeter than a peach
D/F#Bm7C9
But you don’t know the life of a showgirl, babe
G
And you're never, ever gonna
D/F#Em7
Wait, the more you play the more that you pay
C9
You're softer than a kitten so
D/F#Bm7C9
You don’t know the life of a showgirl, babe
G
And you're never gonna wanna"
[Puente]
D/F#D7
I took her pearls of wisdom
G
Hung them from my neck
Gm7
I paid my dues with every bruise
D/F#
I knew what to expect
D7G
Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins?
Gm7
They ripped me off like false lashes
D/F#
And then threw me away
D7G
And all the headshots on the walls
Gm7D/F#
Of the dance hall are of the bitches
D7GGm
Who wish I'd hurry up and die
Gm7
But I'm immortal now, baby dolls
A4
I couldn't if I tried, so I say
[Estribillo]
D/F#Em7
So I say "Thank you for the lovely bouquet
C9
I’m married to the hustle
D/F#Em7
And now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
C9
And I'll never know another
D/F#Em7
Pain hidden by the lipstick and lace
C9D/F#Em7
Sequins are forever and now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
C9D/F#
Wouldn't have it any other way"
Em7
Thank you for the lovely bouquet
C9D/F#
Wouldn't have it any other way
Em7C9
Thank you for the lovely bouquet
D/F#Em7
Hey Kitty, (thank you for the lovely bouquet)
C9D/F#
Now I make my money being pretty and witty
Em7C9
Thank you for the lovely bouquet
D/F#Em7
Thank you for an unforgettable night
C9D/F#
We will see you next time
Em7
Give it up for the band
C9
And the dancers
D/F#
And of course, Sabrina
Em7
I love you, Taylor!
C9
That’s our show, we love you so much
D/F#Em7C9
Goodnight!
