EmG
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem.
CAm
Lying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf.
EmG
It's alarming, honestly, how charming she can be.
CAm
Fooling everyone telling how she's having fun.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
She says, 'You don't want to be like me.
G
Don't want to see all the things I've seen.'
CAm
I'm dying, I'm dying.
Em
She says, 'You don't want to get this way,
G
Famous and dumb at an early age.'
CAm
Lying, I'm lying.
[Chorus]
Em
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
CAmBm
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
Em
She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond.
CAmBm
Audio-tune lies. She's still shining
CAmCAmAm7Am
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
[Verse 2]
EmG
Carmen, Carmen, staying up till morning.
CAm
Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean.
EmG
It's alarming, truly, how disarming you can be.
CAm
Eating soft ice cream, Coney Island queen.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
She says, 'You don't want to be like me,
G
Looking for fun, getting high for free.'
CAm
I'm dying, I'm dying.
Em
She says, 'You don't want to get this way,
G
Street walk at night and a star by day.'
CAm
It's tiring, tiring.
[Chorus]
Em
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
CAmBm
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
Em
She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond.
CAmBm
Audio-tune lies. She's still shining
CAmCAmAm7Am
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
[Bridge]
DEm
Baby's all dressed up with nowhere to go.
BmC
That's the little story of the girl you know.
DEm
Relying on the kindness of strangers,
C
Tying cherry knots, smiling, doing party favours.
AmC
Put your red dress on, put your lipstick on.
Sing your song, song, now the camera's on.
Am
And you're alive again.
Fmadd9Em7
Mon amour, je sais que tu m'aimes aussi,
Cadd9
Tu as besoin de moi,
AmBmFmadd9
Tu as besoin de moi dans ta vie.
Em7
Tu ne peux plus vivre sans moi
C
Et je mourrais sans toi.
AmBm
Je tuerais pour toi.
[Chorus]
Em
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
CAmBm
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
Em
She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond.
CAmBm
Audio-tune lies. She's still shining
CAmCAmAm7Am
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
[Outro]
Em
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem.
CAm
Lying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf.
