Dmaj7/ABluegirls come in every Amaj7size, A7sus4some are wise and Dsome otherwise,

Dmaj7/AMarching to the promised Amaj7land,
Where the A7sus4honey flows, and Dtakes you by the hand,
Pulls you F#m7down on your knees, Cm6while you're down a pool ap - D/Cpears,
The C#dimface in the water looks Dmup, and she C#dimshakes her head,
As if to A#say, that it's the C7/A#last time you'll look like A7sus4to - A7day!'

The Dmaj7/Aface that launched a thousand Amaj7ships,

When Cm6lovelier she was ...than A#any ...Cthat I ...Fknow
Couplet 4
Dmaj7/AAngels never know it's Amaj7time ...to A7sus4close the book,
And Dgracefully decline, the F#m7song has found a tale,
Cm6My, what a jealous pool is D/Cshe,

As if to A#say ...that the C7/A#bluegirls have all gone A7sus4a - A7way

Em7Dive to the bottom, and go to the top,
To E7sus4see where they have E7gone,
Oh, they've Gmaj7gone to the other A/Gside!D
