I've tried to give an approximate indication of the timing of the chords with respect to the lyrics but pretty
much throughout the whole song chords last 2 beats a piece - the most notable exception being the C7 in the
verses.
VERSE 1
F Fmaj7 It's a god-awful small affair F7 D7 To the girl with the mousy hair Gm Gm7 But her mummy is yelling "No" C7 And her daddy has told her to go F Fmaj7 But her friend is nowhere to be seen F7 D7 Now she walks through her sunken dream Gm Gm7 To the seat with the clearest view C7 And she's hooked to the silver screen Ab E+ But the film is a saddening bore Fm Gbsus2 For she's lived it ten times or more Db A+ She could spit in the eyes of fools Bbm Db7 As they ask her to focus on
