Paper Doll

John Mayer

Transposer:

These are the chords John uses in his new single Paper Doll. John is mostly   just riffing on the chords throughout giving it that Mayer-y feel. Tuning is   standard no capo. Hope you guys are blessed by this!--- (Intro) repeated throughout. It sounds to me as though John is riffing on the string   as follows: 12--s10--s8 (or high 7--s5--s3)and then heads to a chord like   3x543x while hammering the g string from the 5 fret to the fourth.   (Same as intro) Paper doll come try it on Step out of that black chiffon Here?s a dress of gold and blue Sure was fun being good to you This one we made just for Fall And Winter runs a bit too small This mint green is new for Spring My love didn?t cost a thing You?re like twenty-two girls in one   And none of them know what they?re runnin? from Was it just too far to fall? For a little paper doll   Verse throughout Fold a scarf Moroccan red            And tie your hair behind your head             Strap into some heels that hurt You should?ve kept my undershirt Chorus Interlude   Verse throughout Cut the cord and pull some strings And make yourself some angel wings And if those angel wings don?t fly Someone?s gonna paint you another sky      Chorus                                ?Cause you?re like twenty-two girls in one     And none of them know what they?re runnin? from Was it just too far to fall? (x2)

La chanson évoque un sentiment de nostalgie et de complexité dans une relation où l'autre personne semble changer constamment, comme un personnage qui revêt plusieurs facettes. L’artiste parle d'une beauté fragile qui, malgré ses apparences, semble être en quête de quelque chose de plus profond, illustrant ainsi la difficulté de s'accepter pleinement dans un monde qui exige des masques et des rôles. Le contexte est celui d'une réflexion sur l'identité et les attentes, notamment à travers des métaphores sur la mode et la transformation. Les références aux saisons et aux tenues transmettent l'idée que les changements extérieurs pourraient occulter les luttes intérieures. Au cœur de tout cela, une invitation à retrouver sa vraie nature se dessine, soulignant que même les petites épreuves peuvent enseigner des leçons précieuses.
