Verse 1
E
Well, I remember it all very well, lookin' back
D
It was the summer I turned eighteen
A
We lived in a one room, rundown shack
C
On the outskirts of New Orleans
E
We didn't have money for food or rent
D
To say the least, we were hard pressed
A
Then mama spent every last penny we had
C
To buy me a dancin' dress
Pre-chorus 1
E
My mama washed and combed
and curled my hair
A
E
And then she painted my eyes and lips (lips)
Then I stepped into a satin dancin' dress
A
that had a split from the side
E
clean up to my hip
A
E
It was red velvet trim and it fit me good
Standin' back from the lookin' glass
There stood a woman
A
E
where a half grown kid had stood
Chorus 1
C
D
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
don't let me down"
G
A
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
E
don't let me down"
Verse 2
E
Mama dabbed a little bit
D
of perfume on my neck
Then she kissed my cheek
A
And then I saw the tears wellin' up
C
in her troubled eyes
As she started to speak
E
She looked at our pitiful shack
D
And then she looked at me
and took a ragged breath
A
She said, "Your pa's runned off
and I'm real sick
C
And the baby's gonna starve to death"
E
She handed me a heart shaped locket
D
that said "To thine own self be true"
A
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl
C
across the toe of my high heel shoe
E
It sounded like somebody else it was talkin',
G#
C#m
askin' "Mama, what do I do?"
A
She said, "Just be nice
to the gentlemen, Fancy
B
E
They'll be nice to you"
Chorus 2
C
Then she said "Here's your one chance,
D
E
Fancy, don't let me down
G
A
Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
don't let me down
G
A
Lord, forgive me for what I do
C
D
But if you want out, well, it's up to you
C
Now don't let me down now
B
E
E
Your mama's gonna move you uptown"
Verse 3
E
Well, that was the last time I saw my ma
D
The night I left that rickety shack
A
The welfare people came and took the baby
C
Mama died and I ain't been back
E
But the wheels of fate had started to turn
D
And for me there was no way out
A
It wasn't very long 'til I knew exactly
C
What my mama been talkin' about
E
I knew what I had to do
D
when I made myself this solemn vow
A
That I's gonna be a lady someday
C
Though I didn't know when or how
E
But I couldn't see spending the rest of my life
G#
C#m
With my head hung down in shame
A
You know I might have been born
just plain white trash
B
E
But Fancy was my name
Chorus 3
C
D
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
don't let me down"
G
A
She said, "Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
E
don't let me down"
Verse 4
E
It wasn't long after a benevolent man
Took me in off the streets
One week later, I was pourin' his tea
In a five room hotel suite (yes she was)
E
I charmed a king, a congressman
And an occasional aristocrat
And then I got me a Georgia mansion
And an elegant New York townhouse flat
Interlude 1
And I ain't done
E
G
A
E
(bad) (she ain't done bad)
Pre-chorus 2
E
Now in this world,
A
there's a lot of self-righteous hypocrites
E
that'd call me bad (bad)
And criticize mama for turning me out
A
E
No matter how little we had
But though I ain't had to worry 'bout nothin'
G#
C#m
For nigh on fifteen years
A
Well, I can still hear the desperation
B
E
In my poor mama's voice ringin' in my ears

D
"Here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
don't let me down
G
A
Oh, here's your one chance, Fancy,
E
don't let me down
G
A
Lord, forgive me for what I do
C
D
But if you want out, well, it's up to you
C
Now don't let me down, hon
B
E
E
Your mama's gonna move you uptown"
