Vers 1:

 D     D/C#                  D/CIt's a god-awful small affair
      B7                     EmTo the girl with the mousy hair
      Em/DBut her mummy is yelling "No"
A                              DAnd her daddy has told her to go
        D/C#                       D/CBut her friend is nowhere to be seen
        B7                         EmNow she walks through her sunken dream
      Em/D                      ATo the seat with the clearest view
                                     F/CAnd she's hooked to the silver screen
         A/C#                 DmBut the film is a saddening bore
       F/Eb                            Bb'Cause she's lived it ten times or more
          D/F#                   GmShe could spit in the eyes of fools
        Bb/AbAs they ask her to focus on

Vers 2:

 D      D/C#               D/CIt's on Amerika's tortured brow
