Footballers Wife

  Em                        Bm
Oh, Mr James Dean, he don't belong to anything
C
Oh he left before they could get him
           G                D7
With their ways, their wicked ways
Em               Bm
Oh Marilyn Monroe, where did you go?
C
I didn't hear all your stories
                      G       D7
I didn't see all your glory


[Chorus]

        Em
But the footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
            Bm
I just don't care in the end

Who is she to pretend
           C
That she's one of them
      G         D7
I don't think so

        Em
And the girl from that show

Yes, the one we all know
                 Bm
She thinks she's some kind of star

Yes, you know who you are
        C                 D7
I don't think so, I don't think so


[Verse]

    Em
Oh, Ginger Rodgers, Fred Astaire
          Bm
Won't you dance for me cos I just don't care
             C
What's going on today
                          G               D7
I think there's something more, something more
        Em
And I'm gone with the wind like they were before
        Bm
But I believe in myself I think there's something more
              C
There must be something more
                          G               D7
I think there's something more, something more


[Chorus]

        Em
But the footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
            Bm
I just don't care in the end

Who is she to pretend
           C
That she's one of them
      G         D7
I don't think so

        Em
And the girl from that show

Yes, the one we all know
                 Bm
She thinks she's some kind of star

Yes, you know who you are
        C                 D7
I don't think so, I don't think so


[Bridge]

     Em
Oh I don't believe in the telling of your stories
       Bm                                                         C
Throughout your life, there's just something unappealing it don't catch my eye
         G        D7
It don't catch my eye
     Em                                             Bm
Oh I don't believe in the selling of your glories before you leave this life

There's so much more to see
  C                     G                    D7
I don't believe this is how the world should be


[Chorus]

              Em
But still the footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
            Bm
I just don't care in the end

Who is she to pretend
           C
That she's one of them
      G         D7
I don't think so

        Em
And the girl from that show

Yes, the one we all know
                 Bm
She thinks she's some kind of star

Yes, you know who you are
        C                 D7
I don't think so, I don't think so


[Outro]

    Em
The footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
            Bm
I just don't care in the end

Who is she to pretend
           C
That she's one of them
