Verse:

--------------- C ---------- E - E/G#
When you're the belle of the ball

F ---------- C - Bm - Am
It's hard to fall

--- Am/G --------- D7/F# ------ Gadd - G
And sacrifice your status for a fool

------------- F --------------- G
But all your apparatus and your charm

E - E/G# --------- Am ----- Am/G ------- F ----
-------- Can never cool the still, still waters

-- Gadd - G6 - Gsus - G - C
Or warm - the  chill--ing air



(As before)
     When you're the belle of the ball
     And your gown's a-shining
     And your underlining all my thoughts
     Why give yourself to he who has the lot?
     I have something to declare



Am ------------ Em
Sensing when to smile

Am ----------------- Em
It's like predicting miles...

F - G ---------- C -- E - E/G#
--- You'll never know

Am -------------- Em
To kiss and then caress

Am -------------------- Em --
Could crease your party dress...

F ----------- G --
And spoil the show



(More or less like first verse
variations can be worked out)

     So the belle of the ball
     Will bow to protocol
     Misfortune won't befall her she's the star
     She'll glide into the night
     Beneath her guiding light
     She'll suffer every slight and heed the call
     But it's alright, it's alright
     She's the belle of the ball
