G Dm
did the owners take you from the fair
C
cause they saw it in your eyes
Am
there was something in your movement
G
back in those days
Dm
when all the men wore hats
C
all the scandals made headlines after that
Am
you passed quietly in the pasture
[Chorus]
Am C Am
ooooh you were beautiful and natural
C
and that's all I ever had to know
G
as the dumb actors read their lines
[Verse 2]
G Dm
they knew that you'd be happier on a farm
C
you were real and the western town was not
Am
you kicked him off the first time you heard the gun sounds
G Dm
I heard they chased the lemmings off the ledge
C
I saw that film not long after you were dead
Am
the night the writers joined the union
[Chorus]
Am C Am
ooooh you were beautiful and natural
C
and that's all I ever had to know
G
as the dumb actors read their lines
[Bridge]
Dm C
Ooh in the tiniest of rooms
Dm C
ooh in the tiniest of zooms
Dm C
you fancied all of ...
[Verse 3]
G Dm
I bet you never really understood
C
I tell you now, be glad you never could
Am
the whole thing makes me sick for the future
G Dm
and may the glory of your picture always be
C
the only thing I ever see
Am
the only pool I ever swim in
[Chorus]
Am C Am
ooooh you were beautiful and natural
C
and that's all I ever had to know
G
as the dumb actors read their lines
[Chorus]
Am C Am
ooooh you were beautiful and natural
C
and that's all I ever had to know
Am
and you've always had the ones you know
C
and you were there when they let us know
Am
and we all sat around the table
C
it was all we ever had to know
Am
it was all we ever had to know
Am C Am
ooooh you were beautiful and natural
C
and that's all I ever had to know
Am
and you've always had the ones you know
C
and you were there when they let us know
Am
and we all sat around the table
C
it was all we ever had to know
Am
it was all we ever had to know
