the last great american dynasty - Taylor Swift ( Lyrics and Chords )

INTRO:
D

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


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


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


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


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


OUTRO:
A            D                               G     D        
 WHO KNOW IF I NEVER SHOWED UP WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
A           D                               G         D 
 THERE GOES THE LOUDEST WOMAN THIS TOWN HAS EVER SEEN
        A              D                  G D
I HAD A MARVELOUS TIME RUINING EVERYTHING
        A             D G
I HAD A MARVELOUS TIME 
D
RUINING EVERYTHING
  A             D G
A MARVELOUS TIME 
D
RUINING EVERYTHING
  A              D G D
A MARVELOUS TIME
        A             D G 
I HAD A MARVELOUS TIME
