Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos

I | put on my shark skin jacket |
You know the kind with the velvet collar
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave

Combed my | hair in a pompadour |
Like the rest of the Romeos wore

Learned stickball as a formal education |
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.

I | heard about sex but not enough |

I found you could dance and still look tough any | way |
I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food drank a lot of take-home pay
| D |
I | thought I was the Duke of Earl |
When I made it with a red-haired girl
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |

Now I | told you my reasons for the whole revival |
Now I’m going outside to have an
Ice cold beer in the shade

You know I d | on’t like watching anybody make the sa | me mistakes I m | ade |
| C#m | C | Bm |
She’s a | real nice girl and she’s | always there for | you |
| Dm | A/C# | Bm | E |
But a n | ice girl wouldn’t | tell you what you should | do | |
| A | G | D |
Oh, l | isten boy, I’m sure that you think you got it a | ll under cont | rol |
| A | G | D |
You don’t w | ant somebody telling you the way to st | ay in someone’s s | oul |
| C#m | C | Bm |
You’re a | big boy now and you’ll n | ever let her | go |
| Dm | A/C# | Bm | A | B |
But t | hat’s just the kind of | thing she ought to k | now | | |
| E | G#m |
T | ell her about it, tell her | everything you feel |
C#m | C#m7 | F#m7 | B7sus4 |
Give her every | reason to ac | cept that you’re for | real |

T | ell her about it, tell her | all your crazy dreams |
C#m | C#m7 | F#m7 | B7sus4 | B7 |
Let her know you | need her, let her | know how much she | means | |
| A | G | D |
L | isten, boy, it’s not automatically a ce | rtain guarant | ee |
| A | G | D |
To ins | ure yourself, you’ve got to provide communic | ation constant | ly |
| C#m | C | Bm |
When you | love someone you’re | always insec | ure |

And there’s | only one good | way to reass | ure | | |

T | ell her about it, let her | know how much you care |

T | ell her about it every | day before you leave |
C#m | C#m7 | F#m7 | B7sus4 | B7 |
Pay her some at | tention, give her | something to be | lieve | |
G | Em | F |
‘Cause now and t | hen she’ll get to w | orrying |

Ju | st bec | ause you haven’t s | poken for so l | ong | |

L | isten boy, it’s good information from a m | an who’s made mist | akes |

Just a wo | rd or two that she gets from you could be the d | ifference that it m | akes |

She’s a | trusting soul, she’s p | ut her trust in | you |
| Dm | A/C# | Bm | A | B |
But a | girl like that won’t | tell you what you should | do | | |

From a | town known a | s Wheeling, West Vi | rginia |
| G | Em | F | C | D |
Rode | a boy with a | six-gun in his | hand | | |
| G | Em | F | C |
And his | daring life of c | rime made him a le | gend in his t | ime |
| G/B | Am7 | D7sus |
East | and | west of the | Rio Grande |
| G | Em | F |
Well, he sta | rted with a | bank in Color | ado |
| G | Em | F | C | D |
In the po | cket of his v | est a Colt he h | id | | |
| G | Em |
And his | age and his s | ize |
| F | C | G/B |
Took the t | eller by surpr | ise | and |
Am7 | D7sus |
The word spread | of Billy the Kid |
| C | D | Em | Bm |
Well he | never traveled h | eavy, yes he | always rode al | one |

And he so | on put many o | lder guns to sha | me |
| C | D | Em | Bm |
And he ne | ver had a sw | eetheart, and he n | ever had a h | ome |
| C | Dsus4 | D |
But the | cowboy and the rancher knew his name | | |
| G | Em | F |
Well, he r | obbed his way from | Utah to Oklah | oma |
| G | Em | F | C | D |
And the l | aw just could not s | eem to track him | down | | |
| G | Em | F | C | G/B |
And it se | rved his legend | well, for the f | olks they’d love to te | ll | ’bout |
Am7 | D7sus |
When Billy the Kid | came to town |
| G | Em | F |
Well o | ne cold day a p | osse captured B | illy |
| G | Em | F | C | D |
And the j | udge said string him | up for what he | did | | |
| G | Em | F | C | G/B |
And the c | owboys and their | kin, like the s | ea came pourin’ | in to | to watch |
Am7 | D7sus |
The hangin’ | of Billy the Kid |
| C | D | Em | Bm |
Well he n | ever traveled he | avy, yes he | always rode al | one |
| C | C/D | F/G |
And he so | on put many | older guns to sh | ame |
| C | D | Em | Bm |
And he n | ever had a sw | eetheart, but he f | inally found a h | ome |
| C | Dsus4 | D |
Underne | ath the Boot Hill grave that bears his na | me | |
| G | Em | F |
From a t | own known as | Oyster Bay, Long I | sland |
| G | Em | F | C | D |
Rode a b | oy with a | six-pack in his h | and | | |
| G | Em | F | C |
And his d | aring life of c | rime made him a l | egend in his t | ime |
G/B | Am7 | D7sus |

Well I’m | on the | Downeaster | Alexa |
| G | D | C |
And I’m | cruising through | Block Island | Sound |
| C | G | Am |
I have | charted a | course to the | Vineyard |
| G | D | C |
But | tonight I am | Nantucket | bound |
C | D | G | C |
We took on | diesel back in | Montauk | yesterday |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
And left this | morning from the | bell in Gardiner’s | Bay |
C | D | G | C |
Like all the | locals here I’ve | had to sell my | home |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Too proud to | leave I worked my | fingers to the | bone |
| G | D | Em |
So I could | own my | Downeaster | Alexa |
| G | D | C |
And I | go where the | ocean is | deep |
| C | G | Am |
There are | giants out | there in the | canyons |
| G | D | C |
And a | good captain | can’t fall | asleep |
C | D | G | C |
I’ve got | bills to pay and | children who need | clothes |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
I know there’s | fish out there | but where God only | knows |
C | D | G | C |
They say these | waters aren’t | what they used to | be |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But I’ve got | people back on | land who count on | me |
| G | D | Em |
So if you | see my | Downeaster | Alexa |
| G | D | C |
And if you | work with the | rod and the | reel |
| C | G | Am |
Tell my | wife I am | trolling | Atlantis |
| G | D | C |
And I | still have my | hands on the | wheel |
| G | D | Em |
Now I | drive my | Downeaster | Alexa |
| G | D | C |
More and | more miles from | shore every | year |
| C | G | Am |
Since they | tell me I | can’t sell no | stripers |
| G | D | C |
And there’s | no luck in | swordfishing | here |
C | D | G | C |
I was a | bayman like my | father was | before |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Can’t make a | living as a | bayman | anymore |
C | D | G | C |
There ain’t much | future for a | man who works the | sea |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But there ain’t no | island left for | islanders like | me |
| G | C | G/B | C |
I | am the entertainer and I | know just where | I | stand |
| C | G/B | C | D |
A | nother serenade | r and another | long-haired b | and |
| G | C |
To | day I am your champion, I | may have won your hearts |
| C | D |
But I | know the game, you’ll fo | rget my name |
| Am7 | Cmaj7 |
And I | won’t be here in | another year |
| D | G |
If I | don’t stay on the ch | arts |
| G | C/E | G/D | C |
I | am the entertainer and I’ve | had to pay | my | price |
| C | G/B | C | D |
The | things I did not | know at first I learned by | doin’ | twice |
| G |
Ah, but | still they come to haunt me |
| C/E | C |
S | till they want their | say |
| C | D |
So I’ve l | earned to dance with a h | and in my pants |
| Am7 | Cmaj7 |
Let ‘em | rub my neck and I | write ‘em a check |
| D | G |
And they | go their merry wa | y |
| G | C/E | G/D | C |
I | am the entertainer, | been all around | the | world |
| C | G/B | C | D |
I’ve | played all kinds of palace | s and laid all | kinds of | girls |
| G | C/E | C |
I | can’t remember faces, | I don’t remember | names |
| C | D |
Ah, but | what the hell, you know it’s | just as well |
| Am7 | Cmaj7 |
‘Cause a | fter a while and a t | housand miles |
D | G |
It all becomes the s | ame |
| G | C/E | G/D | C |
I | am the entertainer, I | bring to you | my | songs |
| C | G/B | C | D |
I’d | like to spend a | day or two, but I can’t | stay that | long |
| G | C/E | C |
No, I’ve | got to meet expenses, I | got to stay in | line |
| C | D |
Gotta | get those fees to the | agencies |
| Am7 | Cmaj7 |
And I’d | love to stay but there’s | bills to pay |
| D | G |
So I | just don’t have the ti | me |
| G | C/E | G/D | C |
I | am the entertainer, I | come to do | my | show |
| C | G/B | C | D |
You’ve | heard my latest recor | d, it’s been on the | radi | o |
| G |
Ah, it | took me years to write it, they were the |
C/E | C |
Best years of my | life |
| Cmaj7 | D |
It was a b | eautiful song, but it | ran too long |
| Am7 | C |
If you’re | gonna have a hit, you | gotta make it fit |
| D | G |
So they | cut it down to 3:0 | 5 |
G | C/E | G/D | C |
I am the entertainer, the | idol | of my | age |
| C | G/B | C | D |
I | make all kinds of mone | y when I go | on the | stage |
| G |
Ah, you’ve | seen me in the papers |
| C/E | C |
I’ve | been in the ma | gazines |
| C | D |
But if | I go cold I | won’t get sold |
| Am7 | C |
I’ll get | put in the back in the | discount rack |
| D | G |
Like a | nother can of be | ans |
| G | C/E | G/D | C |
I | am the entertainer and I | know just where | I | stand |
| C | G/B | C | D |
A | nother serenader and | another | long-haired b | and |

To | day I am your champion, I | may have won your | hearts |

But I | know the game, you’ll fo | rget my name |

I’m so insp | ired | by you |

When you put your | arms a | round me |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest ti | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I’m | that | voice | you’re | hearing in the | hall |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
And | the | great | est | miracle of | all |
E7 | A | A7 |
And how you n | eeded | me too |
D | Bm | E | A |
That has | n’t happened for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
Maybe | this won’t | last very long |

But | you feel so right |
C#m | F#m |

But | I’ve gone this far |

And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Who | knows | how | much | further we’ll go | on |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
May | be I’ | ll | be s | orry when you’re | gone |
C# | F#m |
I’ll take my | chances |
E7 | A | A7 |
I forgot how n | ice r | omance is |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
I had | second | thoughts at the start |
C#m | F#m |
Now I know the | woman that you are |
| B7 |
You’re | wonderful so far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |

In the middle of (I go | walking in) |

In the middle of (I go walking in) |

In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
From the | mountains of | faith |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To the | river so | deep |
| G |
I must be looking for | something |
Something sacred I lost
| G7 | C |
But the | river is | wide |
| Cmaj7 | D |
And it’s | too hard to | cross |
Em | Gmaj7 |
And even though I know the | river is wide |
| Cmaj7 | G |
I walk | down every evening and | stand on the shore |
Cmaj7 | Gmaj7 |
I try to cross to the | opposite side |
| A7 | D |
So I can | finally find out what I’ve been | looking for |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
Through the | valley of | fear |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To a | river so | deep |
| G |
I’ve been searching for | something |
Taken out of my soul
| G7 | C |
Something | I could never | lose |
| Cmaj7 | D |
Something | somebody | stole |
| Em | Gmaj7 |
I | don’t know why I go | walking at night |
| Cmaj7 | G |
But now I’m | tired and I don’t want to | walk anymore |
| Cmaj7 | Gmaj7 |
I | hope it doesn’t take the | rest of my life |
| A7 | D |
Until I | find what it is I’ve been | looking for |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
Through the | jungle of | doubt |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To the | river so | deep |
| G |
I know I’m | searching for something |
Something so undefined
| G7 | C |
That it can | only be | seen |
| Cmaj7 | D |
By the | eyes of the | blind |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in the, in the middle of the

I go walking in the, in the | middle of the |
C | Cmaj7 |
I go walking in the, in the | middle of the |

I go walking in the, in the middle of the |

I go walking in the, in the | middle of the |

I go walking in the, in the middle of the |
Em | Gmaj7 |
I’m not sure about a | life after this |

God | knows I’ve never been a | spiritual man |
Cmaj7 | Gmaj7 |
Baptized by the | fire |
| A | D |
I wade into the | river that is running through the | promised land |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
Through the | desert of | truth |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To the | river so | deep |
| G |
We all end in the | ocean |
We all start in the streams
| G7 | C |
We’re all | carried a | long |
| Cmaj7 | D |
By the | river of | dreams |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in the, in the middle of the

I go walking in the, in the | middle of the |
C | Cmaj7 |
I go walking in the, in the | middle of the |

Friday night I crashed your party |
Saturday I said I’m sorry

Sunday came and trashed me out a | gain |

And we | all enjoyed the weekend for a | change |

I was | stranded in the combat zone |
I walked through Bedford Sty alone

Even rode my motorcycle in the | rain |

And you | told me not to drive |

But I | made it home alive |

So you | said that only proves that I’m in | sane |

Remember how I found you there |
Alone in your electric chair

I told you dirty jokes until you | smiled |

You were | lonely for a man |

‘Cause you | might enjoy some madness for a | while |

Now | think of all the years you tried to |
Find someone to satisfy you

I might be as crazy as you | say |

Making war just for fun |

On a | long and lonesome highway east of Omaha |
| D |
You can | listen to the engine, moanin’ out its one note song |
| A | Em |
You can | think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night | before |
| Em |
And your | thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do |
| D |
When you’re | riding sixteen hours and there’s nothing much to do |
| A | Em |
You | don’t feel much like writing, you just wish the trip was through | |
| D | Em |
But here I | am, on the | road again |
| D | Em |
Here I | am, up on | stage |
| D | A |
Here I | go, playing the | star again |
| C | D | Em |
There I | go, | turn the | page |
Em |
You walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road |
| D |
And you | feel the eyes upon you, as you’re shaking off the cold |
| A | Em |
You | pretend it doesn’t bother you, but you just want to | explode |
Em |
Sometimes you can hear ‘em talk, other times you can’t |
| D |
And it’s all the | same cliches is that a woman or a man |
| A | Em |
And you | always seem outnumbered, you don’t dare make a | stand |
| D | Em |
But here I | am, on the | road again |
| D | Em |
Here I | am, up on | stage |
| D | A |
Here I | go, playing the | star again |
| C | D | Em |
There I | go, | turn the | page |
Em |
Out there in the spotlight, you’re a million miles away |
D |
Every ounce of energy you try to give away |
| A | Em |
And the | sweat pours out your body like the music that you | play |
Em |
Later on that evening, as you lie awake in bed |
| D |
The | echoes of the amplifiers ringin’ in your head |
| A | Em |
And you | smoke the day’s last cigarette, remembering what she said | |
| D | Em |
But here I | am, on the | road again |
| D | Em |
Here I | am, up on | stage |
| D | A |
Here I | go, playing the | star again |
| C | D | Em |
There I | go, | turn the | page |
| D | Em |
But here I | am, on the | road again |
| D | Em |
Here I | am, up on | stage |
| D | A |
Here I | go, playing the | star again |
| C | D | Em |
There I | go, | there I | go |

I got my first real six-string |

Bought it at the five-and-dime |
A |
Played it ‘til my fingers bled |
A |
Me and some guys from school |
E |
Had a band and we tried real hard |
A |
Jimmy quit, Jody got married |
E |
I shoulda known we’d never get far |
F#m | E |
Oh when I | look back now |

The summer seemed to | last forever |

F#m | E |
Those were the | best days of my life |
A |
Ain’t no use in complainin’ |
E |
When you got a job to do |
A |
Spent my evenings down at the drive-in |
E |
And that’s when I met you, yeah |
F#m | E |
Standin’ on your | mama’s porch |
A | D |
You told me that you’d | wait forever |
F#m | E |
Oh, and when you | held my hand |

I knew that it was | now or never |

Those were the | best days of my life |

Back in the summer of | ’69 | , oh |

We were | young and restless, we | needed to unwind |
C | F | G |
I guess | nothin’ can last for | ever, forever, no |
A |
And now the times are changin’ |
E |
Look at everything that’s come and gone |
A |
Sometimes when I play that old six-string |
E |
I think about you and what went wrong |

Standin’ on your | mama’s porch |
A | D |
You told me that it’d | last forever |

I got the call today that I | didn’t wanna hear |
| D |
But I | knew that it would come |
A | E |
Old true friend of ours was | talking on the phone |
| D |
She said you | found someone |
| E |
And I | thought of all the bad luck |
And the struggles we went through
| D |
And how | I lost me and you lost you |
E |
What are these voices outside love’s open door |
| D |
Make us | throw off our contentment |
| E |
And | beg for something more? |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
But I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| D |
But I | miss you sometimes |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D | Esus4 | E |
All the | things I thought I knew I’m | learning aga | in |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if | you don’t | love me any | more |
A | A | Asus2 | A | Asus2 | Asus4 |

| A |
All these | times are so uncertain |
| E |
There’s a | yearning undefined |
| D |
And | people filled with rage |
| A |
We all | need a little tenderness |
E | D |
How can love survive in | such a graceless age? |
| E |
Ah the | trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness |
| D | D |
They’re the | very things we | kill, I guess |
| E |
Our | pride and competition |
Can not fill these empty arms
| D |
And the | work I put between us |
| Esus4 | E |
You know it | doesn’t keep me | warm |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D |
All the | things I thought I’d figured out |
| Esus4 | E |
I | have to learn | again |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But | everything changes |
D |
And my friends seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if, | you don’t | love me any | more |
| G | D/F# |
There are | people in your life, | who’ve come and gone |
| Em | D/F# |
They | let you down, you know they | hurt your pride |
G | D/F# |
You better put it all behind you baby, ‘cause | life goes on |
| E |
You keep | carrying that anger, it will eat you up inside, baby |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
Because the | flesh will get weak |
D |
And the ashes will scatter |
| A/E |
So I’m thinkin’ about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me |

Out on the road today I saw a Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac |
F |
A little voice inside my head said |
Don’t look back, you could never look back
G |
I thought I knew what love was, what did I know? |
F |
Those days are gone forever I should just let them go, but |
C | G |
I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |
| F |
You got the top pulled down and your ra | dio on, baby |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |
| F |
After the boys of | summer have gone |
C | G |
I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |

You got your hair slicked back and those | wayfarers on, baby |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |

Papa drove a truck nearly all his life |
| A7 |
You know it | drove mama crazy being a trucker’s wife |
| B7 |
The | part she couldn’t handle was the being alone |
| C | B7 |
I guess she | needed more to hold than just a | telephone |
E5 |
Papa called Mama each and every night |
| A7 |
Just to | ask her how she was and if us kids were alright |
B7 |
Mama would wait for that call to come in |
| C | B7 | E7 |
And when | Daddy’d hang up she was | gone a | gain |
A7 |
Mama was a looker lord how she shined |
E7 |
Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind |
A7 |
Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men |
E7 | B7 | E5 |
Mama’s in the graveyard | Papa’s in the | pen |
E5 |
Well it was bound to happen and one night it did |
A7 |
Papa came home and it was just us kids |
| B7 |
He had a | dozen roses and a bottle of wine |
| C | B7 |
If he was | lookin’ to surprise us he was | doin’ fine |
E5 |
I heard him cry for Mama up and down the hall |
| A7 |
Then I | heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall |
| B7 |
That | old diesel engine made an eerie sound |
| C | B7 | E7 |
When Papa | fired it up and headed | into | town |
| A7 |
Well the | picture in the paper showed the scene real well |
E7 |
Papa’s rig was buried in the local motel |
| A7 |
The | desk clerk said he saw it all real clear |
| E7 | B7 | E5 |
He never | hit the brakes and he was | shifting | gears |
A7 |
Mama was a looker lord how she shined |
E7 |
Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind |
A7 |
Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men |
E7 | B7 | E5 |
Mama’s in the graveyard | Papa’s in the | pen |
| E5 |
His | eyes are cold and restless |
| A | E5 |
His | wounds have almost | healed |
| A | E5 |
And | she’d give half of | Texas |
| A | E5 |
Just to | change the way he | feels |
| E5 |
She | knows his love’s in Tulsa |
| A |
And she | knows he’s gonna go |
| E5 |
Well it | ain’t no woman flesh and blood |
| B7 |
It’s that | damned old rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |
| A | E |
It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |
| E |
It’s the | white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle |
| B7 | D | B |
He’ll | win the next go ‘round | | |
| E |
It’s | boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats |
| A | E |
It’s | spurs and lati | go, it’s the ropes and the reins |
| B7 | E5 |
And the joy and the pain and they | call the thing rode | o |
| E5 |
She | does her best to hold him |
| A | E5 |
When | his love comes to | call |
| A | E5 |
But his | need for it cont | rols him |
| A | E5 |
And her | back’s against the | wall |
| E5 |
And it’s | so long girl I’ll see you |
| A | A | G |
When it’s | time for him to go | | |
| E5 |
You know the | woman wants her cowboy |
| B7 |
Like he | wants his rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |
| A | E |
It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |
| E |
It’s the | white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle |
| B7 | D | B |
He’ll | win the next go ‘round | | |
| E |
It’s | boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats |
| A | E |
It’s | spurs and lati | go, it’s the ropes and the reins |
| B7 | E5 |
And the joy and the pain and they | call the thing rode | o |
| E7 |
It’ll | drive a cowboy crazy |
| A | E7 |
It’ll | drive a man in | sane |
| A | E5 |
And he’ll | sell off every | thing he owns |
A | E5 |
Just to pay to play the | game |
| E5 |
And a | broken home and some broken bones |
| A |
Is | all he’ll have to show |
| E5 |
For | all the years that he spent chasin’ |
| B7 |
This | dream they call rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |
| A | E |
It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |
| E |
It’s the | white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle |
| B7 | D | B |
He’ll | win the next go ‘round | | |

It’s | boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats |
| A | E |
It’s | spurs and lati | go, it’s the ropes and the reins |
| B7 | E5 |
And the joy and the pain and they | call the thing rode | o |
| E5 |
It’s the | broncs and the blood |
It’s the steers and the mud
| B7 | E5 |
And they | call the thing rode | o |

Three thirty in the morning | not a soul in sight |
E | Am |
The city’s lookin’ like a ghost town on a | moonless summer night |

Raindrops on the windshield, there’s a | storm moving in |

As the storm blows | on | |

She’s waitin’ by the window when he | pulls into the drive |
E | Am |
She rushes out to hold him | thankful he’s alive |
Am | F |
But on the wind and rain a | strange new perfume blows |
| E | Am |
And the | lightning flashes in her eyes and | he knows that she knows |
| G | G/F# | E |
And the thunder rolls | | | |
| F |
She runs back down the hallway | to the bedroom door |
| E | Am |
She | reaches for the pistol hidden | in the dresser drawer |
| F |
Tells the lady in the mirror he | won’t do this again |
E | Am |
‘Cause tonight’ll be the last time she’ll | wonder where he’s been |

And the thunder rolls | | | |

Another love grows | cold | |

When I look into your | eyes |
| C |
I can see a love res | trained |
Fmaj7 | Dm7 |
But darling when I | hold you |
| C |
Don’t you know I feel the | same |
Dm7 | G |
Cause nothin’ lasts for | ever |
| C |
And we both know hearts can | change |
Dm7 | G |
And it’s hard to hold a | candle |
| C |
In the cold november | rain |
Fmaj7 | Dm7 |
We’ve been through this such a l | ong, long time |
| C |
Just tryin’ to kill the | pain, oh yeah |
Fmaj7 |
But lovers always come and lovers always go |
| Dm7 | C |
And | no one’s really sure who’s lettin’ go | today, walkin’ away |
Fmaj7 |
If we could take the time to lay it on the line |
| C |
Just knowin’ that you were | mine, all mine |
Dm7 | G |
So if you want to | love me |
| C |
Then darlin’ don’t | refrain |
Dm7 | G |
Or I’ll just end up | walkin’ |
| C |
In the cold november | rain |
Fmaj7 | G |
Do you need sometime on your | own? |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Do you | need sometime all | alone? |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Everybody | needs sometime on their | own |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Don’t you know you | need sometime all | alone |
Em | Fmaj7 | C |
I know it’s | hard to keep an | open heart |
Em | Fmaj7 | Dm7 |
When even | friends seem out to | harm you |
Em | Fmaj7 | C |
But if you | could heal a | broken heart |
Em | Fmaj7 | G |
Wouldn’t | time be out to | charm you, whoa... |
Fmaj7 | G |
Sometimes I need sometime on my | own |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Sometimes I | need sometime all | alone |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Everybody | needs sometime on their | own |
| Fmaj7 | G |
Don’t you know you | need sometime all | alone |
Fmaj7 |
And when your fears subside |
Dm7 | C |
And shadows still | remain, oh yeah |
Fmaj7 | Dm7 |
I know that you can | love me |
| C |
When there’s no one left to | blame |
Dm7 | G |
So never mind the | darkness |
| C |
We still can find a | way |
Dm7 | G |
Cause nothin’ lasts | forever |
| C |
Even cold november | rain |
C |
Shed a tear ‘cause I’m missing you |
G |
I’m still alright to smile |
A | D |
Girl, I think about you every | day now |
C |
Was a time when I wasn’t sure |
| G |
But you | set my mind at ease |
A | D |
There is no doubt you’re in my | heart now |
C | G |
Said woman | take it slow |
| C | Em |
It’ll | work itself out | fine |
C | G | D |
All we need is | just a little | patience |
C | G |
Said sugar | make it slow |
| C | Em |
And we’ll | come together | fine |
C | G | D |
All we need is | just a little | patience |
| G |
‘Cause I’d | rather be alone |
| A | D |
If | I can’t have you right now, I’ll | wait dear |
C |
Sometimes, I get so tense |
| G |
You know I | can’t speed up the time |
| A | D |
But | you know, love, there’s one more thing to con | sider |
C | G |
Said woman | take it slow |
C | Em |
Things will be just | fine |
C | G | D |
You and I’ll just | use a little | patience |
C | G |
Said sugar | take the time |
| C | Em |
‘Cause the | lights are shining | bright |
C | G | D |
You and I’ve got | what it takes to | make it |
We won’t fake it, oh never break it
'Cause I can't take it
| D | G |
Need a little | patience, mm | yeah |
| D | G |
Need a little | patience, yeah | |
| D | G |
Just a little | patience, yeah | |
| D | G |
Some more | patience, yeah | |
D |
I’ve been walking these streets at night |
G |
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah) |
D |
It’s hard to see with so many around |
| G |
You | know I don’t like being stuck in a crowd (Could use some patience, yeah) |
| D |
And the | streets don’t change but maybe the name |
G |
I ain’t got time for the game |
| D |
‘Cause I | need you (Patience, yeah) |
| G |
Yeah, yeah well I | need you |
| F |
Oh, I | need you (Take some patience) |
| G |
Whoa, I | need you (Just a little patience is all we need) |
| D | G | D | G |
Ooh, this | time... | | | |
D |
She’s got a smile that it seems to me |
| C |
Re | minds me of childhood memories |
| D |
Was as fresh as the bright blue | sky |
D |
Now and then when I see her face |
| C |
She | takes me away to that special place |
| G |
And if I’d | stare too long |
| D |
I’d probably break down and | cry |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet child o’ | mine |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet love of | mine |
D |
She’s got eyes of the bluest skies |
| C |
As | if they thought of rain |
| G |
I’d | hate to look into those eyes |
| D |
And | see an ounce of pain |
| D |
Her | hair reminds me of a warm safe place |
| C |
Where | as a child I’d hide |
| G |
And | pray for the thunder and the rain |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet child o’ | mine |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet love of | mine |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet child o’ | mine, oooh yeah |

Well | I’ll be damned here comes your | ghost again |
| G | D |
But that’s not un | usual it’s just that the | moon is full |
| Em |
And you happened to | call |
| Em | C |
And | here I sit hand on the | telephone |

I’m hearing a | voice I’d known a couple of | light years ago |

As | I remember, your eyes were bluer than | robins’ eggs |
| G | D |
My poetry was | lousy you said, but where are you | calling from? |
| Em |
A booth in the | mid-west |
Em | C |
Ten years ago I bought you some | cuff-links |
| G |
And you bought me | something |
| D |
We both know what | memories can bring |
| Em |
They bring diamonds and | rust |
| Em | C |
You | burst on the scene, already a | legend |
| G | D |
The unwashed phe | nomenon, the original | vagabond |
| Em |
You | strayed into my arms |
| Em | C |
And | there you stayed, temporarily | lost at sea |
| G | D |
The Madonna was | yours for free, the girl on the | half-shell |
| Em |
Could keep you un | harmed |
| Bm7 |
Now I | see you standing with brown leaves falling all around |
| Am7 |
And | snow in your hair |
| Bm7 |
Now you’re | smiling out of the window of that crummy hotel |
| Am7 |
Over | Washington Square |
| C |
Our | breath comes out of white clouds |
| G |
Mingles and | hangs in the air |
| Fmaj7 |
Speaking | strictly for me |
| B7 |
We both could have died then and | there |
| Em | C |
Now you’re | telling me you’re not nos | talgic |
| G | D |
Then give me another | word for it you who are so | good with words |
| Em |
And at keeping things | vague |
| Em |
‘Cause | I need some of that vagueness now |
| C |
It’s all come back too | clearly |
| G | D |
Yes I loved you | dearly, and if you’re offering | diamonds and rust |
| C | D |
Well we | both know what memories can | bring |
| Em |
They bring diamonds and | rust |
| C | D |
Well we | both know what memories can | bring |
| Em |
They bring diamonds and | rust |

Well we | both know what memories can | bring |
| Em |
They bring diamonds and | rust |

On a | warm summer’s evenin’ on a | train bound for | nowhere |
| G | D | A |
I | met up with the | gambler, we were both too tired to | sleep |
| D | G | D |
So | we took turns a starin’ out the | window at the | darkness |
| G | D | A | D |
‘Til | boredom overtook | us, | and he began to | speak |
| D | G | D |
He said, | son, I’ve made a life out of | readin’ people’s | faces |
| G | D | A |
And | knowin’ what their | cards were by the way they held their | eyes |
| D | G | D |
And if | you don’t mind my sayin’, I can | see you’re out of | aces |
| G | D | A | D |
For a | taste of your | whiskey I’ll | give you some | advice |
| D | G | D |
So I | handed him my bottle and he | drank down my last | swallow |
G | D | A |
Then he bummed a | cigarette and asked me for a | light |
| D | G | D |
And the | night got deathly quiet, and his | face lost all expr | ession |
| G | D | A | D |
Said, if you’re | gonna play the | game, boy, ya gotta | learn to play it | right |
| D | G | D |
You got to | know when to hold ‘em, | know when to | fold ‘em |
G | D | A |
Know when to | walk away and know when to | run |
| D | A | D | G | D |
You never | count | your | money when you’re | sittin’ at the | table |
| G | D | A | D |
There’ll be | time enough for | countin’ | when the dealin’s | done |
E | A | E |
Ev’ry gambler knows that the | secret to surv | ivin’ |
| A | E | B |
Is | knowin’ what to | throw away and knowing what to | keep |
| E | A | E |
‘Cause | ev’ry hand’s a winner and | ev’ry hand’s a | loser |
| A | E | B | E |
And the | best that you can | hope for is to | die in your | sleep |
| E | A | E |
And | when he’d finished speakin’, he | turned back towards the | window |
| B |
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to | sleep |
| E | A | E |
And | somewhere in the darkness the | gambler, he broke | even |
| A | E | B | E |
But | in his final | words I found an | ace that I could | keep |
| E | A | E |
You got to | know when to hold ‘em, | know when to | fold ‘em |
A | E | B |
Know when to | walk away and know when to | run |
| E | B | E | A | E |
You never | count | your | money when you’re | sittin’ at the | table |
| A | E | B | E |
There’ll be time | enough for | countin’ | when the dealin’s | done |

Creatures crawl in search of blood to terrorize y’all’s neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell and rot inside a corpse's shell
The foulest stench is in the air the funk of forty thousand years
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller

There’s a | sunny little country south of Mexico |
| F#7 |
Where the | winds are gentle and the waters flow |
| A | Am | E |
But | breezes aren’t the only | things that blow in El | Salvador |
| E |
If you | took the little lady for a moonlight drive |
F#7 |
Odds are still good you’d come back alive |
| A | Am | E | E7 |
But | everyone is innocent unt | il they arrive in El | Salvador | |
| A | B |
If the | rebels take a bus on the | grand highway |
| G#m | C#m |
The | government destroys a village | miles away |
| A |
The | man on the radio says |
B | E | E7 |
Now we’ll play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
And in the morning the | natives say |
G#m | C#m |
We’re happy you have lived a | nother day |
A |
Last night a thousand more |
B | E |
Passed away in El Salva | dor |
| E |
There’s a t | elevision crew here from ABC |
F#7 |
Filming Rio Lempe and the refugees |
A | Am | E |
Calling murdered children the t | ragedy of El S | alvador |
| E |
Be | fore the government camera 20 feet away |
F#7 |
Another man is asking for continued aid |
A | Am | E | E7 |
Food and medicine and h | and grenades for El | Salvador | |
| A | B |
There’s a | thump, a rumble, and the | buildings sway |
G#m | C#m |
A soldier fires the | acid spray |
| A |
The | public address system |
| B | E | E7 |
S | tarts to play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
You run for cover and | hide your eyes |
G#m | C#m |
You hear the screams from | paradise |
A | B |
They’ve fallen further than you | realize |
| E |
Just like | Poland is protected by her Russian “friends” |
| F#7 |
The | junta is assisted by Americans |
| A | Am | E |
And if | 60 million dollars seems | too much to spend in El | Salvador |
| E |
They say | for half a billion they could do it right |
F#7 |
Bomb all day, burn all night |
| A | Am | E | E7 |
Unt | il there’s not a living t | hing upright in El Sa | lvador | |
| A | B |
They’ll con | tinue training troops in the | USA |
G#m | C#m |
And watch the nuns that | got away |
A | B |
And teach the military | bands |
| E | E7 |
To play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
And kill the people to | set them free |
G#m | C#m |
Who put this price on their | liberty? |

Don’t you think it’s | time to leave El Salva | dor? |

I dig rock and roll music and I’d |
Love to get the chance to play (and sing it)
I figure it's about the happiest
Sound going down today
Bm | G |
The message | may not move me |
Bm | G |
Or mean a | great deal to me |
Bm | E | A |
But hey, it | feels so groovy to | say |
D7 |
I dig the Mamas and the Papas at |
“The Trip,” Sunset Strip in L.A.
And they got a good thing going
When the words don't get in the way
Bm | G |
And when they’re | really wailing |
Bm | G |
Michelle and | Cass are sailing |
D7 |
I dig Donovan in a dream-like, tripped out way |
His crystal images tell you ‘bout a brighter day
Bm | G |
And when the | Beatles tell you |
Bm | G |
They’ve got a | word “love” to sell you |
Bm | E | A |
They mean ex | actly what they | say |
D7 |
I dig rock and roll music |
I could really get it on in that scene
I think I could say somethin'
If you know what I mean
Bm | G |
But if I | really say it |
Bm | G |
The radi | o won’t play it |
Bm | E | A |
Unless I | lay it between the | lines |
| G | Bm | C | D |
If I had a | ha | mmer | | |

Jackie kept a lookout | | perched on | Puff’s gigantic tail | |

Noble kings and | princes would | bow whene’er they came | |

Pirate ships would | lower their | flags |

One grey night it | happened, Jackie | Paper came no more | |

Saturday | summers when | I was a | kid |
| C | C/B | Am | D/F# |
We’d | run to the | school yard and | here’s what we | did |
| C | D | C | D |
We’d | pick out the | captains and we’d | choose up the | teams |
| G | G/F# | Em |
It was | always a | measure of | my self esteem |
| C | Am |
Cause the | fastest, the strongest played | shortstop and first |
| C/G | D/F# |
The | last ones they picked were the | worst |
F |
I never needed to ask, it was sealed |
| D/F# |
I just | took up my place in right field |
| G | G/F# | Em | Em7 |
Playing | right | field, it’s | easy you | know |
C | C/B | Am | D |
You can be | awkward, | you can be | slow |
| C | D |
That’s why | I’m here in | right field |
| C | D/F# | G | C | G |
Just | watching the | dandelions | grow | | |
| G | G/F# | Em | Em7 |
Playing | right | field can be | lonely and | dull |
C | C/B | Am | D/F# |
Little leagues | never have | lefties that | pull |
| C | D | C | D |
I | dream of the | day, when they | hit one my | way |
G | G/F# | Em | Em7 |
They never | did, but | still I would | pray |
| C | Am |
That | I’d make a fantastic | catch on the run |
| C/G | D/F# |
And | not lose the ball in the | sun |
| F |
And | then I’d awake from this long reverie |
| D/F# |
And | pray that the ball never came out to me |
| G | G/F# | Em | Em7 |
Here in | right | field, it’s | easy you | know |
C | C/B | Am | D |
You can be | awkward, | you can be | slow |

That’s why | I’m here in | right field |

G | D/F# | Em | Em7 |
Off in the | distance, the | game’s dragging | on |
| C | C/B | Am | D/F# |
There’s | strikes on the | batter, some | runners are | on |
| C | D | C | D |
I | don’t know the | inning, I’ve for | gotten the | score |
| G | G/F# | Em |
The | whole team is | yelling and I | don’t know what for |
C | Am |
Suddenly everyone’s | looking at me |
| C/G | D/F# |
My | mind has been wandering, | what could it be? |
| F |
They | point to the sky and I look up above |
| D/F# |
And the | baseball falls into my glove! |
| G | G/F# | Em | G/D |
Here in | right | field, it’s im | portant you | know |
| C | C/B | Am | D |
You gotta | know how to | catch, you gotta | know how to | throw |
| C | D |
That’s why | I’m here in | right field |
| C | D | G | C | G |
Just | watching the | dandelions | grow | | |

When | I was a child, I caught a | fleeting glimpse |
D | A |
Out of the corner of my | eye |
C | G |
I turned to look but it was | gone |

I cannot put my finger | on it now |

The child is grown, the | dream is gone |

And I got | fading roots | |
F#m | A |
Ticking away the moments that make up a | dull day |
E | F#m |
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand | way |
F#m | A |
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your | hometown |
E | F#m |
Waiting for someone or something to show you the | way |
Dmaj7 |
Tired of lying in the sunshine |
Amaj7 |
Staying home to watch the rain |
Dmaj7 |
You are young and life is long and |
Amaj7 |
There is time to kill today |
Dmaj7 |
And then one day you find |
C#m7 |
Ten years have got behind you |
Bm7 |
No one told you when to run |
E |
You missed the starting gun |
| F#m | A |
You | run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sink | ing |
E | F#m |
Racing around to come up behind you a | gain |
| F#m | A |
The | sun is the same in a relative way, but you’re | older |
E | F#m |
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to | death |
Dmaj7 |
Every year is geting shorter |
Amaj7 |
Never seem to find the time |
Dmaj7 |
Plans that either come to naught or |
Amaj7 |
Half a page of scribbled lines |
Dmaj7 |
Hanging on in quiet |

Despera | tion is the English way |

Hot ashes for tr | ees? Warm air for a coo | l breeze? |

G | Cadd9 |
We both lie silently still in the | dead of the night |
| G | Cadd9 |
Although we | both lie close together we feel | miles apart inside |
| G | Cadd9 |
Was it | something I said or | something I did |
| G | Cadd9 |
Did my | words not come out | right |
| D | Cadd9 |
Though I | tried not to hurt you though I | tried |
I guess that’s why they say

Every rose has its | thorn |

But I | wonder does | he know |

Instead of makin’ love we both | made our separate ways |
| G | Cadd9 |
And now I | hear you found somebo | dy new |

And | that I never meant that mu | ch to you |

To he | ar that tears me up inside |

And to | see you cuts me like a knife |

Well I’d | like to | visit the | moon |

On a | rocket ship | high in the | air |
| C | C/B | Am |
Yes I’d | like to | visit the | moon |

But I | don’t think I’d | like to live | there |

Though I’d | like to look | down at the |

So al | though I might | like it for | one after | noon |

I | don’t want to | live on the | moon |

I’d like to | travel | under the | sea |

But I | don’t think I’d | like to live | there |

I might | stay for a | day there if | I had my | wish |

But there’s | not much to | do when your |
Dm7 | C |
Friends are all | fish |
| F | C | G | Am |
And an | oyster and | clam aren’t | real fami | ly |
| F | G | C |
So I | don’t want to | live in the | sea |

I’d like to | visit the | jungle hear the | lions | roar |

Go back in | time and meet a | dino | saur |

There’s | so many strange | places | I’d like to | be |

But | none of them | permanent | ly |

So if | I should | visit the | moon |

Well I’ll | dance on a | moonbeam and | then |
| C | C/B | Am |
I will | make a | wish on a | star |
| F | G | C |
And I’ll | wish I was | home once a | gain |

‘Cause I | don’t want to | live on the | moon |

Some | body once | told me the | world is gonna | roll me |
I ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Bb | Eb | EMb5 | Eb |
Hey now, you’re an | all-star, get your | game on, | go play |

All that | glitters is | gold | |

Only shooting s | tars | break the | mold |
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters gettin' warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go

Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota |
| D7sus4 | D7 | G7 |
There lived a | young boy named Rocky Ra | ccoon(na) | |
| C |
And one day his woman ran off with | another guy |
C/B | Am7 |
Hit young Rocky in the | eye |
| Dsus4 | D7 |
Rocky didn’t like that he said | I’m gonna get that boy | |
| G7 |
So one | day he walked into town |
| C | C/B |
Booked himself a room in the | local saloon | |
Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Rocky Raccoon checked | into his | room |
G7 | C | C/B |
Only to find Gideon’s b | ible | |
Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Rocky had come equip | ped with the | gun |
| G7 | C | C/B |
To | shoot off the legs of his | rival | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
His | rival it seems had | broken his | dreams |
| G7 | C | C/B |
By | stealing the girl of his | fancy | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Her | name was Magill, and she | called herself | Lil |
| G7 | C | C/B |
But | everyone knew her as | Nancy | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Now | she and her man who | called himself | Dan |
| G7 | C | C/B |
Were | in the next room at the | hoe-down | |
Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Rocky burst in and | grinning a | grin |
| G7 | C | C/B |
He said | Danny boy this is a show | down | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
But | Daniel was hot he | drew first and | shot |
| G7 | C | C/B |
And | Rocky collapsed in the | corner | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Now the | doctor came in | stinking of gin | |
| G7 | C | C/B |
And pro | ceeded to lie on the | table | |
| Am7 |
He said | Rocky you met your match |
| Dsus4 | D7 |
And Rocky | said, Doc it’s only a | scratch |
| C | C/B |
I’ll be better doc as soon as I am | able | |
| Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
And now | Rocky Raccoon he fell | back in his room | |
G7 | C | C/B |
Only to find Gideon’s | bible | |
Am7 | Dsus4 | D7 |
Gideon checked out and he | left in no doubt | |
| G7 | C | C/B |
To | help with good Rocky’s | revival | |

On a dark desert highway, | cool wind in my hair |
G | D |
Warm smell of colitas, | rising up through the air |
F | C |
Up ahead in the distance, | I saw a shimmering light |
Dm |
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim |
E |
I had to stop for the night |
Am | E |
There she stood in the doorway, | I heard the mission bell |
G |
And I was thinking to myself |
| D |
This could be | heaven or this could be hell |
F | C |
Then she lit up a candle | and she showed me the way |
Dm |
There were voices down the corridor |
E |
I thought I heard them say |
F | C |
Welcome to the Hotel Cali | fornia |
F | C |
Plenty of room at the Hotel Cali | fornia |
| Dm | E |
Any | time of year, you can | find it here |
Am | E |
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, | she got the Mercedes bends |
G | D |
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, | that she calls friends |
F | C |
How they dance in the courtyard, | sweet summer sweat |
Dm | E |
Some dance to remember, | some dance to forget |
Am |
So I called up the captain |
E |
Please bring me my wine |
| G | D |
He said, | we haven’t had that spirit here since | nineteen sixty-nine |
F | C |
And still those voices are calling from | far away |
Dm |
Wake you up in the middle of the night |
F | C |
Welcome to the Hotel Cali | fornia |
| F | C |
We’re | livin’ it up at the Hotel Cali | fornia |
| Dm | E |
What a | nice surprise, bring your ali | bis |
Am |
Mirrors on the ceiling |
| G | D |
And she said | we are all just prisoners here, | of our own device |
F |
And in the master’s chambers |
| C |
They are | gathered for the feast |
Dm |
They stab it with their steely knives |
| E |
But they | just can’t kill the beast |
| E |
I was | running for the door |
G |
I had to find the passage back |
| D |
To the | place I was before |
F |
Relax, said the night man |
| C |
We are | programmed to receive |
Dm |
You can check out any time you like |
| E |
But | you can never leave |
G | Gmaj7 | C |

Please allow me to intro | duce myself |
| A | E |
I’m a | man of wealth and | taste |
E | D |
I’ve been around for a | long, long year |
A | E |
Stole many a man’s soul and | faith |
E | D |
And I was ‘round when | Jesus Christ |
| A | E |
Had his | moment of doubt and | pain |
| D |
Made damn sure that | Pilate |
| A | E |
Washed his | hands and sealed his | fate |
B | E |
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my | name |
| B | E |
But what’s | puzzling you is the nature of my | game |
E | D |
I stuck around St. | Petersburg |
| A | E |
When I | saw it was a time for a | change |
| D |
Killed the Czar and his | ministers |
| A | E |
Anas | tasia screamed in | vain |
| E | D |
I | rode a tank, held a | general’s rank |
| A | E |
When the | Blitzkrieg raged and the | bodies stank |
B | E |
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my | name |
| B | E |
But what’s | puzzling you is the nature of my | game |
| E | D |
I | watched with glee while your | kings and queens |
| A | E |
Fought for | ten decades for the | Gods they made |
| E | D |
I | shouted out “Who killed the | Kennedys?” |
| A | E |
When | after all it was | you and me |
E | D |
Let me please intro | duce myself |
| A | E |
I’m a | man of wealth and | taste |
| D |
And I laid traps for | troubadours |
| A | E |
Who get | killed before they reached Bom | bay |
B | E |
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my | name |
| B | E |
But what’s | puzzling you is the nature of my | game |
B | E |
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my | name |

But what’s | confusing you is the nature of my | game |

And | all the sinners | saints |
| E | D |
As | heads is tails just call me | Lucifer |
| A | E |
‘Cause I’m in | need of some re | straint |
E | D |
So if you meet me have some | courtesy |
| A | E |
Have some | sympathy, and some | taste |
| D |
Use all your well-learned pol | itesse |
| A | E |
Or I’ll | lay your soul to | waste, aw yeah |
