Bitter Fingers Chords by Elton John

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm going on [E] the circuit, _ _
[F#m] I'm doing all [A] the [Bm] clubs
And _ I really [E] need a song, boys, [A] to stir those workers [D] _ up
_ [A] And get their wives to [E] sing it with me
[F#m] _ Just like in [A] the _
[Bm] pubs
_ [A] Where I've [D] worked the good old [E] pubs since Tiffany
_ [D] _ _
_ _ [A] _ A good two [E]-knocker line or two
_ [F#m] _ Together for [A] a friend
[D] _ _ _ _ _ Sentimental, [E] peer-inducing
_ [A] _ With a happy [D] _ end
_ [A] And we need a tune [E] to open
_ [F#m] Our season, that's [A] our [Bm] band
_ _ [A] Can _ _ [D] _ [Bm] _ you [E] help us?
[C] _ _ _ [F] _ It's hard to write [C] songs with bare [G] arms [C] and girls
So I can't [Em] prove to those [Am] little tell you [F] why
Those four-die hearts and [C] devil-like cheeks and [G] scowling laughing
[C] At the keyboard players' hollow, [Am] haunted eyes
[Dm] _ It seems to [C] me a change in me is that [F] needed
I'll sing it trot-a [C]-lot, the ninety-dot, the [F] thirty-nine
No more [C] long-faced rotten pop stars
But still a wound that's never [E] stopped
A flaming star, a flaming star
_ [A] _ I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ like the warm blue [E] flame
_ _ [F#m] The hazy heated [A] _
frames
_ [Bm] It loosens up [A] the muscles
And forces you to [D] sing
_ [Bm] You [A] know it's just another hit and [E] run
[A] From the tin-pan alley [D] _
twins
_ [A] _ There's a chance [E] that one day
_ [F#m] _ You might write [A] a stand-alone
_ [Bm] So [D] turn them out [E] big and fast
[A] I'm willing to pack [D] your bags
_ [A] _ Cause we need [E] what we can get
[F#m] _ To launch another [A] good night
[B] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _

_ I'll sing it trot [C]-a-lot, the ninety-dot, [F] the thirty-nine
No more long [C]-faced rotten pop stars
_ But still a wound that's never stopped
[E] A flaming star, a flaming star
