B                       Ab5
She was the girl in the very front row
Ebm
always waitin’ after the show
B                        Ab5
she was the queen of the hollywood hills
Ebm
knew the stars, the bars, the pimps and pills
D
somebody’s climbin’ on a greyhound tonight
Em                        A
too much lipstick and her dress real tight
D
looks like a woman but she ain’t quite
Em      A
no, not quite
 
Ebm/5+           A
she’s somebody’s baby
Ebm/5+           A
she’s somebody’s mother’s child
Ebm/5+              A
she may look like a lady
E
but she’s just a flower grown wild
 
B                           Ab5
they never knew you by your childhood name
Ebm
but they were drawn to you like moths to a flame
B                            Ab5
nobody saw the tears in your silk n' lace
Ebm
or the scarred little kid behind your face
D
just remember when you hold her tight
Em                          A
what you’re holding in your arms tonight
D
she’s no angel, but that’s alright
Em        A
ya that's alright
 
Ebm/5+           A
she’s somebody’s baby
Ebm/5+           A
she’s somebody’s mother’s child
Ebm/5+              A
she may look like a lady
E
but she’s just a flower grown wild
 
D
just another little pretty thing
Em                   A
another angel with a broken wing
D
who fell to earth ‘neath the hollywood hills
Em                                A
amid the stars and the bars, the pimps and pills
 
B Ab5 Ebm
 
B                         Ab5
just like the girl on the movie screen
Ebm
she played it up until the very last scene
B                         Ab5
the picture faded and the day was done
Ebm
went home to nothin but a loaded gun
 
D
somebody's climbing on a greyhound tonight
Em                    A
a little angel flyin' out of sight
D
looks like a woman but she ain't quite
Em       A
no, not quite
