[Verse 1]
 
          Am
In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered
          F
That you love it here, you've got to stay
        Dm
On the bottom of the rock, an island
                       Am
On which you find you love it when you twitch
                            F
You feel that itch in you pettycoat
               Dm
Your pretty pretty pettycoat
 
           Am
Then you smiled, he got wild
                                     F
You didn't understand that there's money to be made
                       Dm
Beauty is a card that must get played
      G
By organisation
 
 
[Chorus]
 
   Am   F                   G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
  F     Am                  G                 Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
  F     Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
F       Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
          Am
The world can be a very big place
          F
So be yourself don't get out of place
        Dm
Love your man and love him twice
                       Am
Go to Hollywood and pay the price
                            F
Oh go to Hollywood
 
          Am
And don't be a star, it's such a drag
     F
Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag
       Dm
It's a hard life to live, so live it well
     Am                                F
I'll be your friend and not in pretend
            Dm
I know you girl
           G
In all situations
 
 
[Chorus]
 
   Am   F                   G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
  F     Am                  G                 Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
  F     Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
F       Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

In all situations
 
 
[Chorus]
 
   Am   F                   G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
  F     Am                  G                 Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
  F     Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
F       Am                  G           Dm
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

To make this sound right you need to tune the high e string down to D, will give you the suspended sounding chords, cheers
