SONG: Big, Blonde And Beautiful
ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman

From the musical, Hairspray


E13
Once upon a time, girl, I was just like you.
A9
Never let my extra large largesse shine through

F#13
Hair was brown and nappy, never had no fun.
  B7(#9)
I hid under a bushel, Which is easier said than done!


A9
Then one day my grandma who was big and stout,
C9
She said you gotta love yourself from inside out.
            F#13
And just as soon as I learned how to strut my funky stuff.
  C9                                      B7(#5)
I found out that the world at large can't 
                E   
get enough. So...


A/E    E/B  A/C#   
Bring on that 
E7  A/C#  E/B    E13    
pecan pie.
   C9
Pour some sugar on it, sugar.
C#m        E9/B  
Don't be shy

    A6        A#dim  
Scoop me up a mess
        E/G#  G#7/C  C#9    G13   
Of that chocolate swirl
F#7   E/G#  Am6   
Don't be stingy,
F#7/A#  B7
I'm a growing girl


       E7   
I offer 
A/E    E7/B   
big love 
     A/B  E7/B  A/C#  E/B   
With no apology
  C9
How can I deny the world
    C#m     Bm7    E9   
The most of me

 A6  
I 
        A#dim            E/B   
am not afraid to throw my 
       G#7/C  C#9  
weight around
   F#7(b9) A7/B   E    E13
Pound by pound by pound
            A7
Because i'm
                E7  A7/C#  E7  
Big, blonde and beautiful
    A7
There is nothin' 'bout me
        E7  A/C#  E7/B    F#m7   
That's unsuitable


G7  G#7  
No 
            G#7/C  
one wants a meal
          C#m    E7/B    A   
That only offers the least
     E/G#       F#7(b9)    
When girl we're servin' up
    F#m7/B  A/B  E    Csus    Gm/C    F/C   
The whole damn feast

F7    A#7/F  F7/C   
Slice off a piece
   A#/C  F7      A#7/D  F/C    F13    
Of that hogs head cheese
     C#7
Then take a look inside
          Dm     F13/C    F13   
My book of recipes


     A#6              Bdim  
Now, don't you sniff around
              F/C    A7/C#    D9    G#9#11   
For something fluffy and light
  G7     F/A     A#m6   
I need a man who brings
  G7/B    C7
A man size... Appetite

          F7   
I'll use a 
A#7/F    F7/C   
pinch of sugar
A#/F  F7    A#7/F  F/C    F13/C   
And a dash of spice
     C#7
I'll let ya lick the spoon
           Dm        F13/C    F13   
Because it tastes so nice
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/misc-soundtrack/264589.html ]
     A#6           Bdim  
I'll keep it in my oven
        F/C     A7/C#  D9  
'Till it's good and hot
        G7(b9)          Gm7/C  A#7/C  F    F13
Keep on stirring til it hits the spot
             A#7
Because i'm...


                F7  A#/D  F7  
Big, blonde and beautiful
    A#7
And Edna girl, you're lookin' so
 F7    A#/D  F7    Gm7    
Recruitable
  A7(#5)       A7/C#  
Why sit in the bleachers
Dm        F7/C    A#   
Timid and afraid
     F/A     G7(b9)    
When Edna, you 
            Gm7/C  A#/C    C11
can be your own parade!


C#7   G#m/C#    F#/C#   
F#   


B7/F#  F#7/C#   
Look out, 
B/C#  F#7  B7/D#  F#/C#   
old Baltimore
      F#13     D9  
We're marching in
And we ain't shufflin'
             D#m  D7  C#m7   
Through that old back door

    F#9    B6              Cdim  
And Tracy, i will join your fight
         F#/C#   A#7/D    D#9   
If i can keep up this pace

    A13         G#7      F#/A#   Bm6   
And girls, i'll be right at your side
   G#7/C  C#7
If I can find some space


           F#7   
So you can
B7/D#     F#7/C#   
Hold your head up
B/C#    F#7    B/D#    F#/C#  
Just as big as you please
    D9
You know they'll hear me knockin'
         D#m           F#13       
With the two of these!


  B6              Cdim  
Tomorrow, side by side
               F#/C#      A#7/D    D#9  
We'll show the world what's right

               G#7(b9)                      F#    F#13
Looks like I'm touchin' up my roots tonight!

              B7
Then we'll be
                F#7  B/D#    F#7  
Big, blonde and beautiful
     B7
It's time to face the fact
        F#7  B/D#  F#7/C#    G#7    
It's irrefutable


   A#+             A#7/D  
Can't ya hear that rumbling?
           D#m       F#7/C#    B   
That's our hunger to be free
     F#/A#   G#7(b9)  
It's time to fin'ly taste
 G#m7/C#   F#13
Equality


          B6
On mother/daughter day
Where thin is in,
      Cdim
We're white as wool

             F#/C#  
Well ladies, big is back!
    F13(#11)          D#13
And as for black, it's...

...Beautiful!!

               G#7
All shapes and sizes, follow me

                 C#7
Let's bust their chops!

Quick, call the cops!

We're gonna dance our way to victory!
