[Intro]
F   G Bb F C

[Verse 1]
     F
Mrs. Mills waits in the dark
        C
for the red light to go on
        Bb               F
And the curtains will be drawn
        C
so none could see
        F
All the townsfolk, they don't
Am            C             G
know what the men do down below
       Bb
In the shadows of
  F       C
a disco neon glow

[Chorus]
Dm     D              G
In the spotlight, she lifts
her wings high
    Bb         F        C
And sings like nobody before
Dm        D            G
Holds her own as their hands,
they roam
         Bb         F
O’er the ivory that is
              G
her flesh and bone
        Bb           Am
Oh, and every suitor gets
       G
their own song
   Bb
To none of them she
F           G
ever will belong
       Bb
'Cause no one takes
  F          G
a Mrs. Mills home

[Verse 2]
     F                    Am
Mrs. Mills waits down the stairs,
        C                Gm
crimson carpеt leads you there
        Bb
Lеaving broken hearts,
  F               C
a trail of those who dared
       F             Am
Mr. Wonder, then Sir John,
       C               Gm
Miss Madonna played by Paul
     Bb            F
Even royalty, they have
          C
to leave by dawn

[Chorus]
Dm      D           G
As they play her, a sound
like a prayer
    Bb         F        C
She sings like nobody before
    Dm        D
Oh, holds her own
       G       Gm
as the sound unfolds
     Bb
O'er ivories,
    F              G
are hers and hers alone
       Bb           F
Still, every suitor gets
          G
their own song
   Bb
To none of them
    F           G
she ever will belong
       Bb
’Cause no one takes
  F          G
a Mrs. Mills home
    Bb              F
And no ones born to feel
           G
like they are owned
