Idol Chords by Elton John

_ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [F] _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Am]
Oh, he was a light star, [Bm] _ trippin' on a [D] high wire
[Ab] Bulldog stubborn, [Eb]
born uneven
[B] A classless creature, _ a man [Am] for all seasons
But don't bet them [Bm] they can't take him to the very bottom
[Fm] Because they made him [Eb] and they'll waste [B] him
And I don't believe [E] that I [Am] wanna watch him
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [B] Cause [E] the fifties shifted [Am] out of gear _
[D] Mmm, he was an idol then, [G] now he's an idol here
[C] But his face has [Bm] changed, he's [Em] not the same no more
[A] And I have to say [B] that I like the way [E] his music sounded [Am] before
He was tight-ass, [Bm] _ walkin' on broken [Cm] glass
Highly prized [Eb] in the wallet size
[B] The number one crush [E] in a schoolgirl's [Am] eyes
But don't pretend that [Bm] it won't end in the depth of your despair
[Fm] _ He went from lamin' [Eb] suits right down to tennis [B] shoes
To peanuts from _ [E] the [Am] lion's share
_ _ [B] _ _ [Gb] _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [D] Cause the fifties shifted [Am] out of gear
Oh, [D] he was an idol then, [G] now he's an idol here
[C] But his face has [Bm] changed, oh he's not [Em] the same no more
[A] And I have to say [B] _ that I like the way [E] his music sounded [Am] before _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[C] _ [D] _ _ _ [Am] _ _
