All This Useless Beauty
   Lush

People,
  Someone was asking for b-sides, so I tried figuring out the chords
for this song.  As usual, I'm a little iffy concerning some of the
chords, so I'd appreciate any constructive corrections.  I'm also
unsure about some of the chords' names, so if you can enlighten me,
go for it.
Let me know how it sounds.  I can't seem to be objective with my
own work.

         G                           G/F#
It's at times such as this she'd be tempted to spit
        Em7               G7
If she wasn't so ladylike
      C                          G
She imagines how she might have lived back when legends
     Am         Bm   C   D
And history collide

        G                           G/F#
So she looks to her prince finding since he's so charmingly
  Em7               G7
Slumped at her side
       C                        G
Those days are recalled on the gallery wall
           Em7         D           A
And she's waiting for passion and humour to strike

CHORUS
  D                   C
What shall we do, what shall we do with

All this useless beauty
                D     G   D   G   D
All this useless beauty

       G                     G/F#
Good Friday arrived, the sky darkened on time
        Em7               G7
'Til he almost began to negotiate
C                         G
She held his head like a baby and said
        Am         Bm   C   D
"It's okay if you cry"

        G                       G/F#
Now he wants her to dress as if you couldn't guess
     Em7                     G7
He desires to impress his associates
          C                      G
But he's part ugly beast and Hellenic deceased
        Em7            D          A
So she finds that the mixture is hard to deny

CHORUS

            F                  G           C
She won't practice the looks great tragic books
                   C/B              Am
That were later defaced, disgraced celluloid
         F              G             C
It don't even make sense but you can bet
       F                       G           C
If she isn't a sweetheart, a plaything or pet
     F             Am     D
The film turns her into an unveiled threat

 G                 G/F#
Nonsense prevails, modesty fails
          Em7                  G7
Grace and virtue turn into stupidity
           C                    G
While the calendar fades almost all barricades
      Am         Bm   C   D
To a pale compromise
     G                         G/F#
Our leaders have feasts on the backsides of beasts
            Em7                        G7
They still think they're the gods of antiquity
    C                          G
If something you missed didn't even exist
       Em7      D
I was just an ideal
         A
Is that such a surprise

CHORUS (2x)

G  D  G  D  G
