[Verse 1]
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                    C        G
Is she really wide awake, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                    C        G
Of her beautiful mistake, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                       C         G
As she moves among the crowd, ah-ha


[Chorus]
F
She's got the world upon a piece of string
Am                                               G
She's got the world upon a piece of string, it's so
F
He was ugly and she was beautiful
Am                       G
He was ugly and she was so

[Verse 2]
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                       C         G
Is she asleep or just afloat, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                       C         G
Of the letter that she wrote, ah-ha
Dm              Am
Is she conscious
                    C        G
Of the muzak in her ears, ah-ha


[Chorus]
F
The Queen of Sheba could have shined her shoes
Am                                                   G
The Queen of Sheba could have shined her shoes, it's so
F
He was ugly and she was beautiful
Am                       G
He was ugly and she was so

[Verse 3]
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                        C        G
As she sways across the room, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                      C        G
Of the weeping of the moon, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                        C       G
As she leaves the door ajar, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                     C       G
As she gets into the car, ah-ha


[Chorus]
F
I don't even want to say her name
Am                                        G
I don't even want to say her name, that's all
F
I want to sing it from the toppest top
Am                                             G        G
I want to sing it from the toppest top, that's all, hey, yeah

F
The Queen of Sheba could have shined her shoes
Am                                                   G
The Queen of Sheba could have shined her shoes, it's so

He was ugly and she was so

Dm               Am

                       C          G
Of the chauffeur as he drives, ah-ha
Dm               Am
Is she conscious
                   C
As the ambulance arrives
