"Verse"
Oh, what's the use in trying?
All the time, it ends in nothing
Oh, what's the use in trying now?
"Verse"
Burn all the canvases
They painted up the queens in crutches
Trial to see how they all see you now
"Pre-Chorus, etc..."
Girl, you can do just as you like
Girl, you can do just as you please
Girl, you wanted, you could've been dead
Now, you're swinging like a funeral march in June, oh
Yeah, but nobody died
(same as "now. you're swingin..." just repeat over and over)
Oh, you're swinging like a funeral march
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh...
[ C#m  A, C#m   A  E, C#m   A   E  Esus4]
"Verse"
Oh, what's the use in trying?
Everything turns to nothing
No mechanics here can save your life
"Verse"
Moons crash inside the opera
Oozing all the starless actors
All hung there in pieces of a sky
"Pre-chorus"
Girl, you can do just as you like
Girl, you can do just as you please
Girl, you wanted, you could've been dead
"Chorus, etc..."
Now, you're swinging like a funeral march, oh
Yeah, but nobody died
Oh, you're swinging like a funeral march
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh, you used to be beautiful
Oh, you used to be beautiful...
