Youre So Vain  Carly Simon



You  [Dm7]walked into a party    Like you are  w[Bb]alking on  [F]to  [Bb]a     [Dm7]yacht
You [Dm7]hat strategically dipped below one eye   Your scarf  it [Bb]was an [F]a-[Bb]pri-[Dm7]cot
[Dm7]You had  [Bbmaj7]one eye  [C]in the [Am7]mirror [Dm7]as   you [Bb]watched yourself gav[F]otte
[F]And all the  g[C]irls dreamed that  [Bb]they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner and

[F]You're so vain  you [Gm7]prob'ly think this song is  ab[F]out you
[F]You're so [Dm7]vain  I'll [Bbmaj7]bet you think this song is [C13]about you don't you don't you

You [Dm7]had me several years ago   When  [Bb]I was still  [F]quite [Bb]na - [Dm7]ive
                [Dm7]Well you said that we make such a pretty pair
                [Dm7]And   t[Bb]hat you would  [F]ne[Bb]ver  [Dm7]leave
[Dm7]But you  [Bbmaj7]gave     [C]away the t[Am7]hings you l[Dm7]oved  and [Bb]one of them was [F]me
[F]I had some d[C]reams, they were cl[Bb]ouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee and

[F]You're so vain  you [Gm7]prob'ly think this song is  ab[F]out you
[F]You're so [Dm7]vain  I'll [Bbmaj7]bet you think this song is [C13]about you don't you don't you

Well[Dm7] I hear you went up to Saratoga    & [Bb]your horse  n[F]at'ral[Bb]ly   [Dm7]won
                [Dm7]Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia
                [Dm7]To see the t[Bb]otal ecli[F]pse [Bb]of the [Dm7]sun
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C Am7 Dm7 MTM
Well you're where you should be all the time
        And [Bb]when you're not you're [F]wit
[F]Some under world  [C]spy or the [Bb]wife of a close friend wife of a close friend and

[F]You're so vain  you [Gm7]prob'ly think this song is  ab[F]out you
[F]You're so [Dm7]vain  I'll [Bbmaj7]bet you think this song is [C13]about you don't you don't you

Great song, but, I think these chords as shown are best suited for piano. Doesn't sound quite right to me on acoustic guitar.

Here's an easier arrangement for those of us who aren't as far along as the "experts".

1. Transpose +2 semitones, then capo fret 5 to get in the same key as Carly sings it.

2. Change a bunch of chords:
>> Change all Em7 to Em.
>> Change all Cmaj7 to C.
>> Change all Am7 to Am
>> Change all Bm7 to Bm.
>> Change all D13 to D.

3. Eliminate the G and second C in the first lines of the verses, such that you play (example verse 1): "walked" (Em), "walking" (C), and "yacht" (Em). (Too many changes as written; again, probably for piano.)

This arrangement may infuriate the "purists", but if I can change something to make it easier (and more fun) to play and still make it sound good, I'm not too proud to do it. Good luck!
