INTRO
D G Em A D
VERSE
Em G A*
When are you gonna come down
D G F#*
When are you going to land
Em G A*
I should have stayed on the farm
D*
I should have listened to my old man
Em G A*
You know you can't hold me forever
D G F#*
I didn't sign up to you
Em G A*
I'm not a present for your friends to open
D* Em G A*
This boy's too young to be singing the blues
D G F#*
Ahhhh
Em G A
Ahhhh
CHORUS
D Em F#
So goodbye yellow brick road
G D
Where the dogs of society howl
D G F#*
You can't plant me in your penthouse
A D Dmaj7
I'm going back to my plough
Bm F#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
G A#
Hunting the horny back toad
C D G F#*
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Em A A# C
Beyond the yellow brick road
F Dm
Ahhhh
A# C D*
Ahhhh
VERSE 2
Em G A*
What do you think you'll do now
D G F#*
I bet that'll shoot down your plane
Em G A
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
D*
To get you on your feet again
Em G A*
Maybe you'll get a replacement
D G F#*
There's plenty like me to be found
Em G A
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
D* Em G A*
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
D G F#*
Ahhhh
Em G A
Ahhhh
CHORUS
