In the mornin' as the sun is brightly glea

I heard her crying out, "What is it all about?
I

just don't know, but
A
I can't go back

Lonely princess

F#m
Nothing is going well
If you could only tell them
E
how you feel
But t
A
hey're too real to
E
understand
Chorus:
A
Too many trite expressions
Ending in forced rejections
E
long ago
A
To many innocent faces
In too many far out places
E
somethings wrong
Let me tell you that
B
somethings wrong
It's been that
A
way so long, and it's a
E
shame
On the street car
To the city where she knows she may lose it all
Riding for just a dime, takin' her own sweet time
And knowing well that this could be her final fall
Past the boutique
To the alley down the river, people pass her by
She sits on a big gray rock, takes off her boots and socks
Not knowin' what she will do next just starts to cry
Chorus:
A
Too many wild rejections
Endin' in angry questions
E
from her dad
A
Too many T.V. dinners
Ah, everyone loves a winner, but
E
she was lost
A
No one knows the t
E
rials she had
(Repeat first verse, then)
E
Hell, I just don't know, but
A
I can't go back
E
home
