Where Beauty Lives in Memory Dolly Parton
CAPO ON 2RD
INTRO:
[A] [Asus] [A] [Asus]
VERSE 1:
[A]She stands before the mirror
[Asus]Smiles at her reflection
[A]Striking sexy [E]poses in the [A]glass
[A]She paints her lips a brilliant red
[Asus]Piles her hair high on her head
[A]Struggles to re[E]place a false eye[A]lash
She [E]powders up her face
Paints her [D]cheeks to match her lips
She wears a dress cut low in the front
Fittin t[A]ight around her hips
And [E]there inside her room
She stands and [D]gazes at herself
Where [E]beauty lives in memory
[D]She lives in fairy [A]tales
Chorus:
[A]Mirror, mirror on the wall
[Asus]Who's the fairest of them all
[A]She sings as she goes [E]waltzing cross the [A]floor
[A]She keeps a candle burning
[Asus]And she waits for his returning
[A]When beauty lives in memory
[E]It lives forever [A]more
VERSE 2:
[A]She was a fairy princess once
[Asus]And was by all adored
[A]They say she was the [E]fairest of them [A]all
[A]They called her cinderella
[Asus]And they say that every fella
[A]Would gladly answer [E]to her beck and [A]call
[E]So the story went
[D]They tell of how this handsome prince
[A]Stole her heart and [E]wandered far [A]away
[A]He took her heart and took her mind
[A]Now she has lost all track of time
[A]Forty years has [E]passed and still she [A]waits singing
Chorus:
[A]Mirror, mirror on the wall
[Asus]Who's the fairest of them all
[A]She sings as she goes [E]waltzing cross the [A]floor
[A]She keeps a candle burning
[Asus]And she waits for his returning
[A]When beauty lives in memory
[E]It lives forever [A]more
VERSE 3:
[A]Meanwhile back inside her room
[Asus]The shads are pulled it's half past noon
[A]But in her mind why it's [E]forty years [A]ago
[A]She recalls the beauty of their love
[Asus]She remembers he was beautiful
[A]And of course she always knew she was
[E]And so the past unf[A]olds
[E]And all at once inside her mind
She [D]sees him at the door
[A]And as he's leading her away
She feels the room begin to sway
Where beauty lives in memory
She falls [E]dead upon the f[A]loor
[A]Mirror, mirror on the wall
[Asus]Who's the fairest of them all
