Verse 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (C major) (D major) Oh, (C major) (G major) (A minor) (D major) the book
(G major) was so much (D major) better than the (G major) picture
In the book, she was a waitress, not a (D major) maid
And the man who was a cook
was a (G major) lifeguard in the (E minor) book
On (A major) top of that, his part was poorly played (D major)
On the (G major) screen, she drew the blind
(D major) as she was (G major) working
But (D major) the (G major) story had her working as a blind (C major)
How the book was so much bet
(A major) ter than the (G major) picture
That (E major) I think (A major) they had an
other (D major) book in (G major) mind (A minor)
(D major) As the (G major) tears fell in my bag
(A minor) of buttered (G major) popcorn
I (D major) was (G major) choked up with emotion (C major) and re (D major) gret
In the book I was so fond of the
(G major) shy and simple blonde
And (A major) here she was a ravishing brunette (D major)
In the story (G major) she was (A minor) plotting out a (G major) murder
But instead I watched her
murdering the (C major) plot
(A minor) Yet I found some sweet enjoy
(F major) ment in the (G major) picture
When (E major) I (A minor) closed my eyes
(D major) I saw it helped (G major) a lot (D major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major)
(D major)
(G major) (E minor) (A major)
(D major) (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (E major) (A minor) (D major)
(G major)
(D major) Don't see (G major) why they had to (A minor) go
and (C major) change the (G major) title. (C major) (G major)
It was hard enough to re (C major) cognize the (D major) thing.
I was waiting for the part
where she breaks (G major) her father's heart.
Instead, (A major) they showed
his elbow in (D major) a sling.
How I (G major) moaned and how I (A major) cried
and how (G major) I suffered,
as the book was brought to
life upon a (C major) screen. (A minor)
It's no (A major) wonder when the
(F major) author saw the (G major) picture
That (E major) he (A minor) shot himself right in
the (A major) (D major) mezzan (G major) ine (E minor)
(A major) (D major) (G major)
