[Verse 1]
G             D/A                  Cadd9
 Rebekah rode up on the afternoon train, it was sunny
G                         D/A                        Cadd9
 Her saltbox house on the coast took her mind off St. Louis
G             D/A                       Cadd9
 Bill was the heir to the Standard Oil name and money
G                          D/A                      Cadd9
 And the town said, "How did a middle-class divorcée do it?"
G             D/A                        Cadd9
 The wedding was charming, if a little gauche
                                 G
 There's only so far new money goes
                   D/A                         Cadd9
 They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House"
G                  D/A                        Cadd9
 Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud
                                       G
 The doctor had told him to settle down
                   D/A                       Cadd9
 It must have been her fault his heart gave out
N.C
 And they said

 
[Chorus]
G               D/A                 Cadd9
 There goes the last great American dynasty
G              D/A                               Cadd9
 Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been
G               D/A                         Cadd9
 There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen
          G              D/A                Cadd9
She had a marvelous time ruining everything

 
[Verse 2]
G             D/A                       Cadd9
 Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set forever
G                D/A                          Cadd9
 Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city
            G                     D/A
 Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names
     Em7                            C
 And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet
G              D/A                  C
 And losing on card game bets with Dalí
N.C
 And they said

 
[Chorus]
G               D/A                 Cadd9
 There goes the last great American dynasty
G              D/A                                     Cadd9
 Who knows, if she never showed up, what could've been
G               D/A                                Cadd9
 There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen
          G              D/A                 Cadd9
She had a marvelous time ruining everything
 

 
[Bridge]
Am                Em7
 They say she was seen on occasion
G                          D
 Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea
Am                      Em7
 And in a feud with her neighbor
G                      D
 She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green
Am     Em7
 Fifty years is a long time
G                  D
 Holiday House sat quietly on that beach
Am       Em7                  G
 Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits
D
 And then it was bought by me
 
G Cadd9 G

 
[Chorus]
G              D/A                                     Cadd9
 Who knows, if I never showed up, what could've been
G               D/A                                 Cadd9
 There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen
          G             D/A              Cadd9
I had a marvelous time ruining everything

 
[Outro]
         G          D/A   Cadd9
 I had a marvelous time ruining everything
G            D/A    Cadd9
 A marvelous time ruining everything
G            D/A    Cadd9
 A marvelous time
         G       D/A     Cadd9
 I had a marvelous time
