Charlie Pride:
Crystal Chandeliers
[Verse]
D A7
All the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall
The marble statuettes
D
Are standing stately, in the hall, but will the timely crowd,
G
that has you laughing loud help you, dry your tears
D A7 D
When the new wears off of your crystal chande-liers
[Chorus]
D A7
I never did, fit in too well with folks you knew
D
And it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
G
So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
D A7 D
And you turned a way from the love I offered you
[Verse]

[Outro]
D A7
I see your picture in the news most every day
You're the chosen girl of the social world
D
So the stories say
But a paper smile only last awhile
G
Then it fades away
D A7 D
And the love we knew will come home to you some day
