Verse: 
C                             Em 
You went out looking for yourself 
                          G 
What did you think you'd find? Uh huh 
C                                      Em 
You thought that you would change the world 
                             G 
You just kept changing your mind, uh huh 

Pre-Chorus 
F                       Fm 
You want a stairway to Heaven 
                        C       G             Am 
But you won't take the journey one step at a time 
             G        G 
Too long a climb, a climb 

       F            C          G 
But a good-looking woman like you 
              F             C             G 
Never had to wait for her dreams to come true 
             Am           C             G 
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do 
          F            C          G 
Was be a good-looking woman like you 

Verse: 
C                                    Em 
Walk through the door, you turn the heads 
                              G 
Let them think they stand a chance, uh huh 
C                                   Em 
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed 
                            G 
Then you lead them to the dance, uh huh 

Pre-Chorus 
F                        Fm 
You give a piece of your body 
                         C       G                  Am 
But still, you keep the darkness of a heart that's blind 
               G             G 
It's weighing heavy on your mind 

       F            C          G 
But a good-looking woman like you 
              F             C             G 
Never had to wait for her dreams to come true 
             Am           C             G 
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do 
          F            C          G 
Was be a good-looking woman like you oh 

BREAK: 
Am                  C                    G 
  Your book's been judged now, cover to cover 
              F                  AM 
And time has made you one of the other 
                  C                             G 
Every choice you made has been written on your face 

And in-between the lines, you can find 

      F         Am         G 
The grace of a woman like you 
                   F             C             G 
Shouldn't have to wait for you dreams to come true 
             Am           C             G 
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do 
          F            C          G 
Was be a good-looking woman like you 
       F            C          G 
Oh, a good-looking woman like you 
                   F             C             G 
Shouldn't have to wait for you dreams to come true 
             Am           C             G 
Once upon a time, it was all you had to do 
          F            C          G 
Was be a good-looking woman like you
