[A#] [C#]
[F#] I'm gonna buy a [G] paper doll that [C#m] I can [G#] call my own
[C#] A doll that other fellows [F#] cannot steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys with [C#] their flirty, flirty [D] eyes
[G#] Will have to flirt with [C#] dollies that are real
[G#m] When I [C#] come home at night, she [F#] will be waiting
[C#] She'll be the truest doll in [A#] all this [Fm] world
[B] I'd rather have a [Cm] paper doll
[F#] To [D#] call my own than [G#m] have a [C#] fickle-minded real [D#m] love girl
[D#] I guess I [C#] had a million [F#] dolls for more
[C#] [C] I [Fm] guess I played it all game [D#m] over and over
I [C#] just quarreled with Sue [G#] and that's why I'm [D#] blue
She's [C] gone [D#] away and left me just [C#] like all dolls do
I'll tell you boys it's [C#] tough to be alone
[A#] And it's tough to love a doll that's not [D#] your [D#m] own
[C#] I'm through with all of them, I'll never [C#m] fall [D#m] again
Say boy, what you gonna [B] do?
[G#] I'm gonna [F#] buy a [D#] paper doll that [A#] I can call [G#] my own
[C#] A doll that other fellows cannot [F#] steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys [A] with [C#] their flirty, [C] flirty eyes
Will [A#] have to flirt with dollies that are [C#] real
When I come home at [G#m] night, she will [F#] be waiting
[D#]
She'll [C#] be the truest [A#] doll in all this world
[C#] I'd rather have [G#] a paper doll [F#] to call [G]
my own
Than [D#] have a fickle-minded real [D#m] love
