High Fashion Queen Songtext

von Flying Burrito Brothers

There's a place everyone of us can go to
E
Maybe you have been there once or twice
B7
Where all your friends just look at you and whisper
F# B7
And they want to give you nothing but advice
E B7
When you walk in they all know what you're after
E
And the higher that you get the more they'll see
E E7 A
In a dark room filled with music, wine and laughter
E B7 E
Your eyes keep searching for her constantly
A E
Is it that one in the corner with her eyes filled with tears
C#7 F# B7
Or is she the one who's having fun drinking too much beer
E B7
Every night it's the same sad old procedure
E
The doorman winks at you on your wayo ut
E7 A
Cause deep inside he knows just what your after
E B7 E
And he's got something you can't live without

A
There's nothing new that can be said about dirt
E C#7 F# B7
And there's nothing left inside your heart but the same old hurt
E E7 A

Of an old love's fancy life has left you stranded in a dream
E B7 E
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen
B7 E
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen
B7 A E
Ain't you glad you're a high fashion queen
