So Like Candy Elvis Costello
Here lies the powder and perf[Am]ume [Am/G]
The pretty clothes are scattered '[D]round [F]the [E]room
And it's [Dm]so like Candy [E]
Here lies the lipstick and the [Am]face [Am/G]
The coloured tablets keep it [D]all [F]in [E]place
And it's [Dm]so like Candy
So like Cand[G]y
[C]What did I do [E]to make her go
[Am]Why must she[G] be the one
[F]That I have to love
[Fm]So like [C]Candy [E]
Here lies a picture of a [Am]girl [Am/G]
Her arms are tight around that [D]luc[F]ky [E]guy
And it's [Dm]so like Candy [E]
And in her eyes a certain [Am]look [Am/G]
I thought I'd seen the last of [D]long [F]ag[E]o
And it's [Dm]so like Candy
So like Cand[G]y
[C]What did I do [E]to make her go
[Am]Why must she[G] be the one
[F]That I have to love
[Fm]So like Candy
I re[F]member the day that [G#]picture was taken
We were so [C]happy then
[G]But that's so like [C]Candy
[F]She seemed so sweet to me [G#]I was mistaken
Oh no not [C]that again
[G]But that's so like [C]Candy
She just can't [G]face the [C]day
[G]So she turns and [Am]melts away
Here lie the records that she [Am]scratched [Am/G]
And on the sleeve I find a [D]note [F]at[E]tached
And it's [Dm]so like Candy [E]
"My Darling Dear it's such a [Am]waste" [Am/G]
She couldn't say "Goodye", but "[D]I adm[F]ire your [E]taste"
And it's [Dm]so like Candy
