Kiss Them For Me


A song about the actress Jayne Mansfield, and her death. Key of F VERSE 1: F It glittered and it gleamed For the arriving beauty queen Bb Gm A ring and a car F Now you're the prettiest by far VERSE 2: F No party she'd not attend No invitation she wouldn't send Bb Gm Transfixed by the inner sound F Of your promise to be found PRE-CHORUS: F "Nothing or no one will ever Bb Gm Make me let you down" CHORUS: F Bb Gm Kiss them for me, I may be delayed F Kiss them for me, if I am delayed VERSE 3: F It's divoon, oh it's serene In the fountains pink champagne Bb Gm Someone carving their devotion F In the heart-shaped pool of fame PRE-CHORUS: F (break) "Nothing or no one will ever Bb Gm Make me let you down" CHORUS: F Bb Gm Kiss them for me, I may be delayed F Kiss them for me, I may find myself delayed BREAK: F (throughout) VERSE 4: F On the road to New Orleans A spray of stars hit the screen Bb Gm As the tenth(?) impact shimmered F Bb Gm The forbidden candles beamed CHORUS: F Bb Gm Kiss them for me, I may be delayed F Bb Gm Kiss them for me, I may find myself delayed F Bb Gm Kiss them for me, Kiss them for me F Kiss them for me, I may find myself delayed
