              C      F     G   C  
Nobody feels any pain  
C            F     G          C  
Tonight as I stand inside the rain  
F         G          F              G  
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes  
    F   Em Dm C      F               G  
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows  
     Am     C        G7  
Have fallen from her curls  
  
    C     Em   Dm     F  
She takes just like a woman, yes she does  
    C          Em   Dm     F  
She makes love just like a woman, yes she does  
        C     Em   Dm     F  
And she aches just like a woman  
        G7                        C     (Fill) 
But she breaks just like a little girl.

Queen Mary, she's my friend  
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again  
Nobody has to guess that baby can't be blessed  
Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest  
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls.  
  
Bridge   
  
E7  
It was rainin' from the first and I was dying there of thirst  
     C  
So I came in here   
E7  
And your longtime curse hurts but what's worse  
        F                     G7  
Is this pain in here, I can't stay in here,   
F  
Ain't it clear  
  
That I just can't fit  
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit  
When we meet again introduced as friends  
Please don't let on that you knew me when  
I was hungry and it was your world.  
  
Final Chorus and Fill
