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