[INTRO]
G Am F .
[VERSE]
G Her name was Kitty
Am Made her money being pretty and witty
C G They gave her the keys to this city
G Am F Then they said she didn't Do it legitly, uh
G I bought a ticket
Am She's dancing in her garters and fishnets
C G Fifty in the cast, zero missteps
Am F Looking back, I guess it was kismet
[PRE-CHORUS]
G I waited by the stage door
G Packed in with the autograph
Am Hounds barking her name
C G Then glowing like the end of a cigarette
G Wow, she came out
F I said, "You're living my drеam"
D Then she said to me
[CHORUS]
G Am "Hеy, thank you for the lovely bouquet
C You're sweeter than a peach
G C F But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
C And you're never, ever gonna
G Am Wait, the more you play, the more that you pay
C G You're softer than a kitten, so
G F You don't know the life of a showgirl, babe
C And you're never gonna wanna"
[VERSE]
C She was a menace
Dm The baby of the family in Lenox
Bb C Her father whored around like all men did
Dm Bb Her mother took pills and played tennis
[PRE-CHORUS]
C So she waited by the stage door
Dm Asked the club for more to arrive
Dm Bb C She said, "I'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life"
It's all mine
Bb But that's not what showgirls get
They leave us for dead

[BRIDGE]
G I took her pearls of wisdom
F Hung them from my neck
C I paid my dues with every bruise
Cm G I knew what to expect
G F Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins?
C They ripped me off like false lashes
Cm And then threw me away
G G7 C And all the headshots on the walls
Cm G Of the dance hall are of the bitches
G G7 C Cm Who wish I'd hurry up and die
Cm But I'm immortal now, baby dolls
D I couldn't if I tried, so I say
[CHORUS]
G Am "Thank you for the lovely bouquet
F I'm married to the hustle
G C F And now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
C And I'll never know another

F G C F Sequins are forever and now I know the life of a showgirl, babe
C G Am Wouldn't have it any other way (Thank you for the lovely bouquet)
F G C F C Wouldn't have it any other way (Thank you for lovely bouquet)

F G Now I'm making money being pretty and witty
C F Thank you for the lovely bouquet"
