(Intro)
[Am] [G]Elizabeth [F]Taylor
Do you think it’s for[Am]ever? [G] [F]
(Verse 1)
That [Am]view [G]of Portofino was [F]on my mind when you
Called me at the Plaza [Am]Athénée
[G]Ooh, oftentimes it doesn’t [F]feel so glamorous to be me
[Am]All the right guys [G]promised they’d stay
[F]Under bright lights they withered away, but you [Am]bloom
[G]Portofino was [F]on my mind
And I think you know why
And [Em]if your letters ever [F]said “Goodbye” I'd
(Chorus)
[Am]Cry my eyes [G]violet
Elizabeth [F]Taylor, tell me for [G]real
Do you think it’s [Am]forever?
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have
[Am]Be my [G]NY when Hollywood [F]hates me
You’re only as [G]hot as your last hit, [Am]baby
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have you
(Verse 2)
[Am]Hey, [G]what could you possibly [F]get for the girl
Who has [G]everything and nothing all at [Am]once?
[G]Babe, I would trade the [F]Cartier for [G]someone to trust
We [Am]hit the best booth at [G]Musso & Frank's
They [F]say I'm bad news, I [G]just say “Thanks”
And [Am]you [G]look at me like you’re [F]hypnotised
And I [G]think you know why
And [Em]if you ever leave me [F]high and dry
I'd
(Chorus)
[Am]Cry my eyes [G]violet
Elizabeth [F]Taylor, tell me for [G]real
Do you think it’s [Am]forever?
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have
[Am]Be my [G]NY when Hollywood [F]hates me
You’re only as [G]hot as your last hit, [Am]baby
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have [Am]you
(Bridge)
[G]Elizabeth [F]Taylor
[G]Do you think it’s [Am]forever?
[G]If I can’t have [F]you
All my [Dm]white diamonds and lovers [G]are forever
In the [Dm]papers, on the screen and [Am]in their minds
All my [Dm]white diamonds and lovers [G]are forever
Don’t you [Dm]ever end up [Em]anything but mine
(Chorus)
[Am]Cry my eyes [G]violet
Elizabeth [F]Taylor, tell me for [G]real
Do you think it’s [Am]forever?
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have
[Am]Be my [G]NY when Hollywood [F]hates me
You’re only as [G]hot as your last hit, [Am]baby
Been number [G]one but I never had [F]two
And I can’t have [G]fun if I can’t have you
(Outro)
All my [Am]white diamonds and lovers [G]are forever
In the [Am]papers, on the screen and [F]in their minds
All my [Am]white diamonds and lovers [G]are forever
Don’t you [Am]ever end up [G]anything but mine
