VERSE1:
G             Am                     C             
 REBEKAH RODE UP ON THE AFTERNOON TRAIN, IT WAS SUNNY
G                         Am                         C
 HER SALTBOX HOUSE ON THE COAST TOOK HER MIND OFF ST. LOUIS
G               Am                     Em       C       
 BILL WAS THE HEIR TO THE STANDARD OIL NAME AND MONEY
        G                     Am                 C     
AND THE TOWN SAID, "HOW DID A MIDDLE-CLASS DIVORCÉE DO IT?"
G/B              Am                      C
 THE WEDDING WAS CHARMING, IF A LITTLE GAUCHE
                          
THERE'S ONLY SO FAR NEW MONEY GOES
G/B                Am                         C
 THEY PICKED OUT A HOME AND CALLED IT "HOLIDAY HOUSE"
G/B                 Am                      Em
 THEIR PARTIES WERE TASTEFUL, IF A LITTLE LOUD
               C 
THE DOCTOR HAD TOLD HIM TO SETTLE DOWN
G/B                Am                   C
 IT MUST HAVE BEEN HER FAULT HIS HEART GAVE OUT


CHORUS: 
           
AND THEY SAID
D           G/B                       C      G
 THERE GOES THE LAST GREAT AMERICAN DYNASTY
D              G/B                                C    G
 WHO KNOWS, IF SHE NEVER SHOWED UP, WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
D               G/B                         C
 THERE GOES THE MADDEST WOMAN THIS TOWN HAS EVER SEEN
          G              Am                  C
SHE HAD A MARVELOUS TIME RUINING EVERYTHING


VERSE2:
G             Am                     C
 REBEKAH GAVE UP ON THE RHODE ISLAND SET FOREVER
G                Am                           C
 FLEW IN ALL HER BITCH PACK FRIENDS FROM THE CITY
           G/B                     Am                      
FILLED THE POOL WITH CHAMPAGNE AND SWAM WITH THE BIG NAMES
    Em                            C
AND BLEW THROUGH THE MONEY ON THE BOYS AND THE BALLET
G              Am                  C       
 AND LOSING ON CARD GAME BETS WITH DALÍ


CHORUS: 
           
AND THEY SAID
D           G                         C      G
 THERE GOES THE LAST GREAT AMERICAN DYNASTY
D              G                                  C    G
 WHO KNOWS, IF SHE NEVER SHOWED UP, WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
D               G                           C
 THERE GOES THE MADDEST WOMAN THIS TOWN HAS EVER SEEN
          D              G                  C G/B
SHE HAD A MARVELOUS TIME RUINING EVERYTHING


BRIDGE:
Am                Em    
 THEY SAY SHE WAS SEEN ON OCCASION
G                    D                          Am
PACING THE ROCKS, STARING OUT AT THE MIDNIGHT SEA
         Em     
AND IN A FEUD WITH HER NEIGHBOR
G                     D                   Am 
SHE STOLE HIS DOG AND DYED IT KEY LIME GREEN
      Em
FIFTY YEARS IS A LONG TIME
G                 D                  Am
HOLIDAY HOUSE SAT QUIETLY ON THAT BEACH
        Em                        G
FREE OF WOMEN WITH MADNESS, THEIR MEN AND BAD HABITS
D                          D G C G       
AND THEN IT WAS BOUGHT BY ME


OUTRO:
D            G                               C     G

D           G                               C         G 
 THERE GOES THE LOUDEST WOMAN THIS TOWN HAS EVER SEEN
