Amaj7  B             C#m
Lady writer on the TV
A                  B      C#m
Talking about the Virgin Mary
A  B           C#m
Reminded me of you
A     B              G#m
Expectation left to come up to, yeah

Lady writer on the TV
Yeah, she had another quality
The way you used to look
And I know you never read a book

Chorus:
A
Just the way that her hair fell
                 E
down around her face
A                          C#m  G#m
And I recall my fall from grace
F#m     Am6            C#m
Another time, another place

Lady writer on the TV
She had all the brains and the beauty
The picture does not fit
You'd talk to me when you felt like it

G#m                  G#m7
You got the same command
                       F#m
Plus your mother was a Jazz singer

Lady writer on the TV (Lady writer on the TV)
She knew all about a history
You couldn't hardly write your name
I think I want you just the same as the

Lady writer on the TV (Lady writer on the TV)
