Took A Lot Of Pills Died Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A D A D A E A

With her Adrop-dead looks and her lDittle-girl charm

AEverybody thought she'd go Efar

And at A20 years old she was rDich as could be

And a wAorld-famed HoEllywood stAar.

With the big parts coming and the sDweethearts, too,

ALife was a hell of a rEide

But her sAtar soon fell and her bDody got old

So she tAook a lot of piElls and diAed.

She tAook a lot of Dpills and Adied

She Atook a lot of Dpills and Adied

her sAtar soon fell and her bDody got old

So she tAook a lot of piElls and diAed.

While the traffic crawled by in the street outside

She was sitting in her kitchenette

Listening to the scuttle of the rats in the wall

And staring at her TV set.

She once might have been too proud to be found

in a hovel on the lower East Side

But nothing in the world seemed to matter much now

So she took a lot of pills and died.

Now she hasn't been seen on the silver screen

And she never may be again

But every once in a while at the far end of the dial

You can see her how she was back then.

In a soft close-up, with her hair backlit,

She seemed to glow inside

Yeah, but something went wrong, 'cause forty years on

She took a lot of pills and died.
