Magnetic Fields - A Pretty Girl Is Like

intro – F# G#m

F# G#m
a pretty girl is like a minstrel show
F# G#m
it makes you laugh it makes you cry you go
F# G#m
it just isn’t the same on radio
F# G#m
it’s all about the makeup and the dancing and the oh ,

F# G#m
a pretty girl is like a violent crime
F# G#m
if you do it wrong you could do time
F# G#m
but if you do it right it is sublime

B G#m
i’m so in love with you , girl , it’s like i’m on the moon
B G#m
i can’t really breathe , but i feel lighter

F# G#m
a melody is like a pretty girl
F# G#m
who cares if it’s the dumbest in the world
F# G#m
it’s all about the way that it unfurls
B
a pretty girl is like
F# G#m
a pretty girl

outro – F# G#m
