G Am C Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunny
G Am C Her saltbox house on the coast took her mind off St. Louis
G Am G/B C Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money
G Am C And the town said, "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?"
G/B Am C The wedding was charming, if a little gauche
G/B There's only so far new money goes
Am C They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"
G/B Am Em Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud
C G/B The doctor had told him to settle down
Am C/E It must have been her fault his heart gave out
N.C
And they said
[Chorus]
D G/B C G There goes the last great American dynasty
D G/B C G Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been
D G/B C There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen
G Am CShe had a marvelous time ruining everything
[Verse 2]
G Am C Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set forever
G Am C Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city
G/B Am Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names
Em C And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet
G Am C And losing on card game bets with Dalí
N.C
And they said
[Chorus]
D G C G There goes the last great American dynasty
D G C G Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been
D G C There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen
D G CShe had a marvelous time ruining everything
[Bridge]
Am Em They say she was seen on occasion
G D Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea
Am Em And in a feud with her neighbor
G D She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green
Am Em Fifty years is a long time
G D Holiday House sat quietly on that beach
Am Em G Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits
D And then it was bought by me
G C G
[Chorus]
D G C G/B Who knows, if I never showed up, what could've been
D G C G/B There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen
D G C G/BI had a marvelous time ruining everything
[Outro]
D G C G/B I had a marvelous time ruining everything
D G C G/B A marvelous time ruining everything
D G C G/B A marvelous time
D G C I had a marvelous time
