[D]
She's the center, spreads her branches, slides up the moon
[C] She's the one on the wall, watched by him she's [G] scared to move
[D] She carried well on over him in the one [G] scarf
She's the girl that [C] survived and fought for a [G] hundred million losses
She's [D] the planner, she's always on his mind
A technicolor dream, [C] he's secret devil
She lives on his life for all, [G] [D] she's the girl he dreams of
When he's at sea, [G] from strings [A] interweaved, [G] you'd like her at her waiting
[C] She's
[D] the planner, [C]
she's [D] the planner
[E] Oh, the [A] summaries, [E] make things she's [A] so serene
[E] As a mermaid she's done [Em] with much, but such [G] a sin
Could be this year's [D] last year's thing
Charity, gives something for nothing
Oh, [C] Trevor is [A] a, a [C] victim of [G] her desires
[D] Since 23 years of a scratch, this girl is desection
Don't look at [A] her in there, I'm [C] Babylon, I'm meant [G] to fly
[C]
She's [D] the planner, [C]
[D] she's the planner
[E] Oh, the [A] summaries, [E] they find [A] the songs to read
[E] As a mermaid she's [G] done with much, but such a sin
Could be [D] this year's last year's thing
She's

[E] [G]
[D]
the center, spreads her branches, slides up the moon
She's the [C] one [C#m] on his door, [C] all quiet and she's [G] scared to move
[D] She's very well known, only in the one's knows
[Dm] She's the [A] devil's survivor, all but [G] on intimate advances
[C] She's the [D] planner,
[C] [D] she's the planner
She's [C] [D] the planner,
[C] [D] she's the planner
[C] She's [D] the planner,
