Wig In A Box

• A

Intro: A  Ab/C#  F#m  Gmaj7 

D 

A         Ab/C#                
On nights like this 
F#m7     Gmaj7          D 
When the world's a bit amiss 
        E 
And the lights go down 
 A                 E   E7 
Across the trailer park 
A 
I get down 
Ab/C# 
I feel had 
F#m7          Gmaj7          D 
I feel on the verge of going mad 
    E                           A 
And then it's time to punch the clock 

A             E 
I put on some make-up 
F#m             C#m 
And turn up the tape deck 
D            A              E        F#7 
And pull the wig down on my head 
Bm          E 
Suddenly i'm miss midwest 
A        Ab/C#   Gmaj7 
midnight checkout queen 
A       D 
Until i head home 
    E             A       G      D 
And put myself to bed 

A          Ab/C# 
I look back on where i'm from 
F#m7        G          D 
Look at the woman i've become 
        E 
And the strangest things 
    A            E 
Seem suddenly routine 
A                 Ab/C# 
I look up from my vermouth on the rocks 
F#m            G                D 
A gift-wrapped wig still in the box 
   E             A 
Of towering velveteen 

A             E 
I put on some make-up 
F#m             C#m 
And some lavern baker 
D            A                 E      F#7 
And pull the wig down from the shelf 
Bm           E            A        Ab/C#  Gmaj7 
Suddenly i'm miss beehive nineteen sixty-three 
A       D 
Until i wake up 
    E            A          G     D 
And turn back to myself 

A                     Ab/C# 
Some girls they got a natural ease 
F#m          Gmaj7        D 
They wear it any way they please 
           E 
With their french flip curls 
    A            E 
And perfumed magazines 
A 
Wear it up 
Ab/C# 
Let it down 
F#m         Gmaj7              D 
This is the best way that i've found 
          E                A 
To be the best you've ever seen 

A             E 
I put on some make-up 
F#m             C#m 
And turn up the eight-track 
D               A                 E      F#7 
I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf 
Bm           E           A 
Suddenly i'm miss farrah fawcett 
Ab/C#  Gmaj7 
From tv 
A       D 
Until i wake up 
    E              A 
And turn back to myself 

D 
Shag, bi-level, bob 
C 
Dorothy Hammil do, 
D 
Sausage curls, chicken wings 
     C 
It's all because of you 
          D 
With your blow dried, feather back, 
C 
Toni home wave, too 
D 
flip, fro, frizz, flop, 
     C 
It's all because of you 
     Bb 
It's all because of you 
     A7                     G 
It's all because of you 

A             E 
I put on some make-up 
F#m         C#m 
turn up the eight-track 
    D           A                 E       F#7 
I'm pulling the wig down from the shelf 
Bm          E               A 
Suddenly i'm this punk rock star 
   Ab/C#    Gmaj7 
Of stage and screen 
A           D 
And I ain't never 
    E             A 
I'm never turning back
