                            Evangeline is on her own

                            Just barely seventeen when she left home
                       (no chord)                         D D7                     G      G7
                            Don't know where she is, or where she's going
                                             D                           A                     D   add4
                            She is the queen of make believe - Evangeline

      (no chord)        A                           D
           I can still remember this little girl
                                      A                                 D       D7
           Black eyes just staring at this big old world
                               G  G7                         D
           Went off to find some American dream
                                    A           G                         D       G  A
           Train ticket in one hand in her new blue jeans

                            Evangeline is on her own
                            Just barely seventeen when she left home
                            Don't know where she is, or where she's going
                            She is the queen of make believe - Evangeline
                                                *Solo*   (chorus)

           She went out dancing on a Saturday night
           Silk stockings and high heels, looking fine and running wild
           But on Sunday morning, she's all alone
           Head lying on the night stand by the telephone

                            Evangeline is on her own
                            Just barely seventeen when she left home
                            Don't know where she is, or where she's going
                            She is the queen of make believe - Evangeline
                                             D                           A                     D   add4  D
                            She is the queen of make believe - Evangeline...
