The Roches - Pretty And High
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
D7
[Verse 1]
She came on the Gstage
In a Cdress like the sky
She had Gpainted a sunset
AFround her eyes
And all of the people
Were charmed and surD7prised
How Cpretty and Ghigh and D7shy she was
CPretty and Ghigh and D7shy
[Verse 2]
She at the Gwindow
And the Cprince upon the bed
They Gwere for an hour
BeFfore he said
If she had no place else
She was welcome to stay
But she D7better get bGack
And she Fthanked him the D7same
Leaving him Cpretty and Ghigh and D7dry
CPretty and Ghigh and D7dry
[Verse 3]
The prince was conGfused
So he Casked the magician
The maGgician arrived
At the Fanswer profound
If she takes off her dress
Then the sky will fall D7down
If she Ctakes off her Gdress
Then the D7sky will fall down
'Cause she's Cpretty and Ghigh and a D7lie
CPretty and Ghigh and a D7lieG  
[Verse 4]
I work at the cirCcus
And I Fsleep with the clown
When I took off my Cdress
The Bbsky fell down
And if the sky falls down
Then we play on the Gground
'Cause I'm Fpretty and Chigh and only Gpartly a lie
FPretty and Chigh and only partly a Glie
FPretty and Chigh and only partly a Glie

The Roches - Pretty And High

CAPO: 2nd Fret

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

She came on the stage

In a dress like the sky

She had painted a sunset

Around her eyes

And all of the people

Were charmed and surprised

C G D7

How pretty and high and shy she was

C G D7

Pretty and high and shy

[Verse 2]

She at the window

And the prince upon the bed

They were for an hour

Before he said

If she had no place else

She was welcome to stay

D7 G

But she better get back

F D7

And she thanked him the same

C G D7

Leaving him pretty and high and dry

C G D7

Pretty and high and dry

[Verse 3]

The prince was confused

So he asked the magician

The magician arrived

At the answer profound

If she takes off her dress

Then the sky will fall down

C G

If she takes off her dress

Then the sky will fall down

C G D7

'Cause she's pretty and high and a lie

C G D7 G

Pretty and high and a lie

[Verse 4]

I work at the circus

And I sleep with the clown

When I took off my dress

The sky fell down

And if the sky falls down

Then we play on the ground

F C G

'Cause I'm pretty and high and only partly a lie

F C G

Pretty and high and only partly a lie

F C G

Pretty and high and only partly a lie
