[E]Rita

[Verse 1]
[Am]D 'Acost[F#dim]a,
they [Bdim]were under your s[E]pell
The [Am]soldiers, the [F#dim]synths,
and the [G]sad mil[Bdim]lion ai[E]res
They [Am]only [F#dim]wanted lo[E]ve
But [Am]that was [F#dim]never eno[F]ugh[Dm][Bdim]
[E]For [Am]Rita D 'A[F#dim]costa in
a [G]room [Bdim]at the [F]Ritz[E]
Philo[Am]sophers,
[F#dim]poets and art[G]ists and wit[E]s
They'd [Am]laugh in[F#dim]to the night[Bdim]
[E]What [F]a s[Am]trange and wond[Dm]erful l[E]ife
[C]She was the [G]one
A [E]living work of [F]art
[G]She[C] was the one[G]
Who [Em]never [E]gave [Em]her h[E]eart[F] away[E]
[Am]Rita, Mercedes [F#dim]and
[G]Id [Bdim]a who flew
[E]Young, b[Am]ored and rich[F#dim]
with [Bdim]not much to do
[E]When you[Am]'ve got dol
[F#dim]lars to burn[B][Bdim]
[E]You can do [Am]what you want
[F]But [Bdim]what is it[E] you wan[Am]t?[F#dim][Bm][Bdim][E][Am]
[F#dim][G][E][Am][F#dim][Bsus4][E][Am][F#dim][Bm][E]
[C]She was the [G]one in a
[E]walking work of [F]art
[G]She [C]was the one[G]
who [Em]nev [E]er gave her [F]heart [E]away
[Am]Rita D 'A[F#dim]costa alone
[B]in the Got[E]ham
Bank[Am]rupt and [F#dim]broken and
[Bm]all but forgot[E]ten
If [Am]she had j[F#dim]ust found
[Bm]love[Bdim][E]
She'd have [Am]known that that
[F]was [Bm]enough[Bdim][E]
[C]She was the [G]one
A [E]dying work of [F]art
[G]She [C]was the one[G]
who [E]never [Em]gave her [F]heart [E]away
She just could not give her heart away
