[e,a,e,b / e,a,e,b]
[for the intro, play e with an f# added on the high
E string, and then a normal e chord for the second
Strum. tack that f# onto the a chord as well.]
E a c#m
You have to do your best to come up to par,
A b e
From straight off the production line like a car,
E a c#m
Till everything you put on is a put-on,
A f#m
And you dont know whos face youre gazing upon
C#m a
Could be anyone youre sending out there tonight,
C#m b
Is it any wonder all the lights are too bright?
E a
And you need temporary beauty,
G#m e b
And hope to God that it doesnt rain
E a
You need temporary beauty,
G#m c#m f#m b e [like intro}
Even though it might be love in vain
The world is full of little people like you
They have to read a book to learn what to do
They hang around in second hand stores for clothes
And every kind of pressures steps on their toes
Love doesnt fall out of a magazine
You mustnt always believe what you see
[chorus]
A b a b
Ah-ah-ah temporary beauty, ah-ah-ah temporary beauty,
A b a e e b
Ah-ah-ah temporary beauty
You might be the sweetest little girl in your heart
But still the world ignores that and tears you apart
You think of the parties youll never attend
You dream of someone whos more than a friend
Love doesnt jump out of a magazine
You mustnt always believe what you see
E a
And you need temporary beauty,
G#m e b
And hope to God that it doesnt rain
E a
You need temporary beauty,
G#m c#m f#m b [3 times]
Even though it might be love, [3 times]
In vain (like intro)
