[D]
She arrives in all her [G] splendor each night at nine o'clock
[A] Her chariot is a cross-town bus that stops right [D] down the block
Now the old piano man's [G] struggle plays again as she walks on
And [A] the queen of the silver [D] dollar's home again
[G] [D]
She's the [G] queen of the silver [D] dollar
She rules the smoky kingdom
Her [G] scepter is her [D] wineglass [E] and the parsnool is [A] her throne
Now [D] the [G] jesters walk [D] around her [G] trying to win her [D] favor
To see [G] which one [D] will take [G] the queen [A] of the silver
[D] dollar home
Now the royal dress is satin, [G] it's shabby and it's torn
[A] The royal jewels are [B]
[A] rhinestones, the shoes are scuffed [D] and worn
Of the many robes [Em] she's been [G]
down and the places that she's seen
[A] Well they all look at [D] her and say, [A] God [D] save the queen
[G] [D] She's the queen [G] of the silver [D] dollar
She rules the smoky kingdom
Her [G] scepter is [D] her wineglass [E] and the parsnool is [A] her throne
Now [D] the [G] jesters [D] walk around her trying [G] to win [D] her favor
To see [G] which one [D] will take [G] the queen [A] of the silver [D] dollar home
Now the queen of the silver dollar [G] is not as haughty as she seems
[A] She was once an ordinary girl with [D] ordinary dreams
But there's a man who [Bm] found [G] her and he brought her to this world
[A] He's the one who made a queen of a simple [D] country girl
Yes I'm the queen [G] of the [D] silver dollar
I rule the smoky kingdom
[G] Scepter is [D] my wineglass [E] and the parsnool is [A] my throne
Now [D] the jesters walk around me trying to win my favor
To see which one will take the queen of the silver dollar home
[A] Yes [D] I'm the [G] queen of the [D] silver dollar
I [G] rule the [D] smoky kingdom
[G] Scepter [D] is my wineglass [E] and the parsnool is [A] my throne
Now [D] the [G] jesters [D] walk around me trying to win my favor
