[C]Who thanked the Lord for the [C+]clothes that she wore [Am]and mended

[C7]Nellie [F]with the [G]big old fashioned [C]eyes

[C]Who won the heart of a [C+]crowd tore apart, [Am]took a bow

[C7]Nellie [F]there's a [G]different world [C]backstage

(Chorus:)
[Bb]I see the [Fmaj7]flood lights burning

[Bb]I hear the [Fmaj7]band play on

[Bb]Now [Am]Nel---[Gm]lie [F]takes [F]her [C]bow

[C]She said she [C+]really could not [Am]stay

[C7]Nellie [F]she had a [G]brand new play to [C]play

[C]And so she [C+]paints her face and [Am]smiles[C7]

[F]And she'll be [G]some one else in a [C]while

(Chorus)

[C]Just another lonely girl who [C+]could not face a broken world

[Am]And so she acts out all her dreams

[C7]and wishes that's how it had been

[F]But when the audience is near

[G]It seems as though she doesn't seem to [C]care

[C]Nellie just sent me a line to [C+]tell me she was doing fine

[Am]She got the lead and on Brodway

[C7]And now they're digging her today

[F]And as she turns the final page

[G]Living some one's life upon the [C]stage

(Chorus)
