E B C#m
A E B
F#m E G#m C#m B
Verse:
E B C#m A E B
All of the stage names evaporate, and it's just a blood flushed and hard rushing race
F#m E G#m C#m A B
Either to kick off too soon, or stick round too late to be far too dear or too cut rate
F#m
Hold my hand again
B
Like at the lake
F#m
Hold that mirror babe
B
Up to my face
F#m
Hear the whippoorwill
A
Am I breathing still?
(same chords as intro)
E B C#m
A Hollywood Babylon bikeathon for breakdancers
A E B
All broken down in their beds
F#m E B
Now intravenously fed
F#m E B
From a bag hanging over their heads
F#m
Can I put you down for some miles?
B
What do ya say?
F#m B
Cause don't ya know it's going to be a long, long way?
F#m
But if you've got the cash
A
I'm ready to bust my ass
(same chords as intro)
E B C#m
So take this thin broken down circus clown reject
A E B
And give her the name of a queen
F#m E B
Don't I know her from the mezzanine?
F#m E B
She didn't look like no princess to me
F#m B
But with the proper words bestowed
F#m B
And with her morning shoot and her evening clothes
F#m
Don't call her a prostitute
B
She ain't one of those
F#m A
Just call her a proper little statue, come unfroze
(same chords as intro, minus the last B)
End on C#m
