verses:
(G) If you had the real (D) thing how would you (A) tell
Liars can (G) say it all just as well
Every (D)single word (A) you're heard in (G)vain
Baubles of (D) gold stars in your (A)hair
Reflections that (G) told you that they were not there
And the (D) diamonds on your (A) checks have turned to (G) flames
And up in the (A)air they would (D)write your (Bm)name there
But (G)love would (A)fall to (F#m)pieces (Bm)in the rain
Who would know (A)better than you
A hundred love (G)letters and none of them true
Chris... (D)tina...(A)....ohhh(G)  Chris... (D)tina...(A)....ohhh(G)
It's a wonderous (D)world of ridiculous (A) things
With nothing so (G)rare as the love that it brings
In the (D) silence of a (A) smile that under(G)stands
A piece of the (D) action, pieces of (A) gold
Everyone's (G) paid well and does what they're told
For the (D)simple daughter (A) of a simple (G) man
And up in the (A)air they would (D) write your name there
But (G) love would (A) fall to (bm) pieces in the rain
Who would know (A) better than you
A hundred love (G)letters and none of them true
Chris... (D)tina...(A)....ohhh(G)  Chris... (D)tina...(A)....ohhh(G)
Chris... (D)tina...(A)....ohhh(G)  Chris... (D)tina...(A)....(E)
{end on G}
