[E] [G#m]
[C#m] [F#m]
[E] Cry baby [G#m] boy not tears of joy [C#m] The one you held is no [F#m] longer your boy
[E] She's got a [G#m] new suit and her make [C#m]-up on You [F#m]
[E] can call her your friend [G#m] but not your
lover again [C#m] She's made it clear [F#m] as air that this affair
is at [E] an end So [G#m] what are you doing holding [C#m] on?
[A] Won't you see [E] she's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's gone
[F#m] Yes [E] she's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's gone [F#m] She
[E] was soft in your hands, [G#m] now she's shattered
your plans [C#m] I'm sympathetic [F#m] but you gotta [E] understand
You tried to squeeze [G#m] her into somewhere she just [C#m] don't belong
She [F#]
[E] was being sincere when [G#m] she breathed in your ear
[C#m] As long as there were [F#m] stars in the night sky she'd [E] be near
[G#m] Even angels get a [C#] glow [C#m] [A] Won't you see she's [E] rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's
gone [F#m] Yes she's [E] rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's gone
[F#m]
[G#m] It's a subtle [C#m] trap,
[A] it's leaving guilt in her [E] mind
[G#m] But she ain't taking [F#m] your crap [B] this time [A] Boy you're out on the [G#m] line
[F#m] Well
[E] she's a queen among [G#m] women, a child among [C#m] queens
The finest thing [F#m] that your lovesick eyes have ever [E] seen
She's [G#m] a rose without a [C#m] thorn, [F#m]
[E] she's a peach to the [G#m] prize
A gift in disguise, [C#m] she's graceful and colorful [F#m] and when she grows she'll be [E] wise
But [G#m] most of all my friend [C#m] she's gone [A] Gone, gone, gone
[E] She's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#] she's gone [C#m] [F#m] Yes [E] she's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's gone
[F#m]
Yes [E] she's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#] she's gone [C#m] [F#m]
[E] She's rare, [G#m] precious and [C#m] she's gone
[A] Gone, gone, gone
