G              Cadd9         G  Cadd9
   She's a bad actress  but hey

G                  Cadd9        G   Cadd9
  You give her the big lines anyway
[Verse 1]
G             A7sus4         G/B  G
  Though her eyes are big as Canada

          A7sus4              G/B  G
  And her hips are South Australi--a

         A7sus4           G/B G
And the shoulder blade is Africa

        A7sus4         G/B G
Looking out on South America

    A7sus4    G/B     G
I'm out here on the sea

          A7sus4              G/B      G
And here heart ain't where it ought to be
[Intrumental] Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Chorus]
G              Cadd9         G  Cadd9
   She's a bad actress  but hey

G             Cadd9            G   Cadd9
  She's got a big part in your play
[Verse 2]
G          A7sus4       G/B       G
  Now my apartment lies awake at night

    A7sus4     G    G/B   G
It tosses everytime she sighs

                A7sus4 G/B     G
Tries to take it easy   on her eyes

           A7sus4        G/B     G
But I can feel it giving up the fight

         A7sus4        G/B       G
My whole buildings on it's last floors

              A7sus4 G/B  G
Her hearts not in it anymore
[Intrumental] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Bridge]
C   C/B  Am7
Ooh.........

C   C/B  Am7
Ooh........
G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Chorus]
G              Cadd9              G  Cadd9
  She said she gave her heart to you

G              Cadd9              G  Cadd9
   If it was precious why'd you lose      it?
[Verse 3]
G               A7sus4  G/B       G
  But if it was golden, it'd shine

        A7sus4          G/B      G 
If it's big it won't be hard to find

         A7sus4              G/B       G
If it's real, it stains your hand like wine

        A7sus4                G/B     G
You can look but there is no use in trying

          A7sus4         G/B        G
Cause no matter what she said, the truth

            A7sus4         G/B       G
Is that she never gave her heart to you
[Intrumental] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Chorus]
G     Cadd9   G     Cadd9
  Bad actress   Bad actress
G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
