Pretty And High

D7

[Verse 1]
                G
She came on the stage
     C
In a dress like the sky
        G
She had painted a sunset
 F
Around her eyes

And all of the people
                    D7
Were charmed and surprised
    C          G        D7
How pretty and high and shy she was
C          G        D7
Pretty and high and shy


[Verse 2]
           G
She at the window
        C
And the prince upon the bed
     G
They were for an hour
  F
Before he said

If she had no place else

She was welcome to stay
        D7          G
But she better get back
        F               D7
And she thanked him the same
            C          G        D7
Leaving him pretty and high and dry
C          G        D7
Pretty and high and dry


[Verse 3]
                  G
The prince was confused
      C
So he asked the magician
      G
The magician arrived
       F
At the answer profound

If she takes off her dress
                       D7
Then the sky will fall down
       C             G
If she takes off her dress
         D7
Then the sky will fall down
             C          G          D7
'Cause she's pretty and high and a lie
C          G          D7        G
Pretty and high and a lie


[Verse 4]
                 C
I work at the circus
      F
And I sleep with the clown
                   C
When I took off my dress
    Bb
The sky fell down

And if the sky falls down
                    G
Then we play on the ground
           F          C             G
'Cause I'm pretty and high and only partly a lie
F          C                      G
Pretty and high and only partly a lie
F          C                      G
Pretty and high and only partly a lie
